1. The Committee notes the Government's indication that while national legislation and regulations do not contain provisions applying directly the provisions of the Convention, it nonetheless contains some provisions relating to goods' control and loading as well as requirements concerning freight contracts, including penalty and administrative measures in case of breach of contract. In this respect, the Committee notes the provision of article 77, paragraph 1, of the Maritime Code according to which goods should be packaged, marked and labelled in accordance with existing regulations. The Committee therefore requests the Government to specify the regulations determining the special requirements to be observed in this respect. It further recalls the provision of Article 1, paragraph 1, of the Convention according to which any package or objects of 1,000 kg or more gross weight shall have its gross weight plainly and durably marked upon it on the outside before it is loaded on a ship or vessel.

The Committee accordingly requests the Government to indicate in its next report the measures taken or contemplated in order to give full effect to the Convention.

2. Part III of the report form. In its previous comment the Committee had asked the Government to supply further information on the inspection system, its legal basis and on the frequency these inspections are carried out. The Committee states that the Government's report does not contain any information in this regard. The Committee accordingly asks the Government again to explain the legal basis for carrying out inspections, as inspections generally aim to secure the enforcement of legal provisions, including the imposition of penalties in cases of violation of regulations. The Government is further requested to provide additional information on the inspection system and on the frequency inspections are carried out.
