Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 1998, Publicación: 87ª reunión CIT (1999)

Convenio sobre el alojamiento de la tripulación (disposiciones complementarias), 1970 (núm. 133) - Guinea (Ratificación : 1977)

In its previous comments, the Committee noted that the Government's report did not contain full information on each of the provisions of the Convention and on each question in the report form approved by the Governing Body. The Committee noted that by virtue of sections 682, 684, 685 and 690 of the Merchant Marine Code, adopted and enacted by Act L/95/23/CTRN of 12 June 1995, published in the Official Journal of 30 November 1995, the Minister responsible for the Merchant Marine shall issue orders under various provisions of the Code relating to the application of the Convention. The Committee also notes from the Government's report that there is a national directorate, called the Maritime Navigation Agency (ANAM) within the Ministry of Transport, which includes marine inspectors who ensure the application of the Code. It notes in particular the statement that the Government will transmit to the Office the legal texts and regulations respecting the establishment, organization and functioning of the above Authority. The Committee also notes the Government's statement in its report that, since Guinea does not have any shipyards, it has the alternative of purchasing vessels which are in accordance with the provisions of the Convention or ensuring that vessels are altered to comply with the Convention.

The Committee trusts that the Government will indicate the measures which have been taken or are envisaged to ensure that vessels which are registered in Guinea and lie within the scope of the Convention are in conformity with its requirements. It hopes that the Government will endeavour to provide a detailed report, in accordance with the report form approved by the Governing Body.
