Observation (CEACR) - adoptée 1991, publiée 78ème session CIT (1991)

Convention (n° 22) sur le contrat d'engagement des marins, 1926 - Mauritanie (Ratification: 1963)

Further to its previous observations concerning the draft Ordinance prepared in 1979, the Committee notes, from the Government's report, that the above draft has not yet been adopted. In view of the fact that the draft should bring the legislation into conformity with Article 9, paragraph 1, of the Convention (the possibility for the seaman of terminating an agreement for an indefinite period in any port where the vessel loads or unloads), Article 12 (determining the circumstances in which the seaman may demand his immediate discharge) and Article 14, paragraph 2 (the right of the seaman to a certificate), the Committee trusts that the Government will be able to indicate in the very near future that the draft in question has been adopted and that it will transmit a copy of it.

[The Government is asked to report in detail for the period ending 30 June 1992.]
