Article 10(3) of the Convention. Annual report. Further to its general observation of 2004, the Committee notes the Government’s indication that the annual inspection report on food and catering is still under preparation and will be sent to the Office upon its finalization. The Committee once more requests the Government to provide the most recent annual report issued by the competent authority, as required under this Article of the Convention.

Part V of the report form. Practical application. The Government notes the monthly activity reports and inspection results of the maritime inspectorate of the Port of Alexandria in matters related to food, water, storage spaces and equipment used in food preparation that the Government has been regularly submitting in recent years. The Committee requests the Government to continue to supply up-to-date information, including, for instance, extracts from reports of the inspection services, any available information as to the number and nature of complaints which may have been made by members of ships’ crews, the penalties imposed, copies of any relevant collective agreements, information on any training courses for members of the catering department of seagoing vessels and copies of any notices issued by the competent authority to ships’ masters, agents or cooks on food and catering issues, including recommendations to avoid wastage of food or to maintain a proper standard of cleanliness.

Finally, the Committee takes this opportunity to recall that most of the provisions of Convention No. 68 have been incorporated into Regulation 3.2, Standard A3.2 and Guideline B3.2.1 of the Maritime Labour Convention, 2006 (MLC, 2006). Moreover, the MLC, 2006, introduces some new provisions regarding the obligation to take into account the differing cultural and religious backgrounds, to provide food free from charge and to carry a fully qualified cook. The Committee requests the Government to keep the Office informed of any further developments regarding the process of ratification and effective implementation of the MLC, 2006.
