Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 1991, published 78th ILC session (1991)

Fishermen's Articles of Agreement Convention, 1959 (No. 114) - Panama (Ratification: 1970)

The Committee notes that the Government's report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:

Article 3, paragraph 4, and Article 6, paragraph 3(a), (d), (e), (f), (g) and (i), of the Convention. With reference to its earlier comments, the Committee notes from the Government's report that the Directorate General of Consular and Maritime Affairs of the Ministry of Finance will take the necessary measures once the system of work contracts on board cargo ships has been defined. The Committee hopes that the Government will be able to state in its next report that the necessary steps have been taken to give effect to these provisions of the Convention.
