1. Further to its previous comments the Committee notes with interest that sections 9, 43 and 45 of the Occupational Safety, Health and Welfare Act, 1988, gives effect to provisions of Article 3, paragraph 2 (means of access to a ship, lying alongside a quay or some other vessel, provided for the use of workers), Article 5, paragraph 5 (ladders to be used by the workers in the hold of a vessel), Article 17, paragraph 3 (posting of copies of Regulations), of the Convention.

2. Article 3, paragraphs 3 and 4. Regulation 10 of the Dock Regulations, 1937 mentioned by the Government in its report, foresees the use of a ship accommodation ladder or a gangway or a similar construction of a ship lying at a wharf or quay, whereas under indicated provisions of the Convention their use shall also be prescribed in case of a ship lying alongside some other vessel.

For many years, since 1966, the Government has been expressing the intention of amending the Dock Regulations, 1937, in order to give full effect to the Convention. In its reports of 1985 and 1987, the Government described certain stages of the process of amending the Dock Regulations. Now, in its last report, it does not refer to this draft. The Committee draws once again the Government's attention to the need to introduce amendments to the above-mentioned provisions and requests it to indicate in its next report any progress made in this respect.
