Following its previous direct request, the Committee notes with interest the information supplied by the Government in its last report. The Government communicated a copy of Decree No. 55/75 of October 1975, which gives partial effect to certain provisions of the Convention. The Committee notes that, under the terms of Act No. 2/86 (General Labour Act), industrial relations on board ship are regulated by special legislation taking into account the fundamental principles set forth in that Act. The Committee requests the Government to indicate in its next report any provisions adopted or envisaged under section 1(2) of the General Labour Act to give full effect to the Convention.
