Repatriation of Seamen Convention, 1926 (No. 23) - Anguilla

The Committee notes from the Government's first report that no legislation has been made in Anguilla pertaining to this Convention but that a draft Merchant Shipping Bill put forward for consideration by Caribbean countries at a meeting sponsored by the Caribbean Law Institute contains provisions relating to the repatriation of seamen which would meet the obligations under this Convention. The Committee hopes that the Government will report on progress in legislative action to give effect to the Convention and also indicate the manner in which the Convention is applied in practice.
