Article 4, paragraph 1, of the Convention. In reply to previous comments, the Government states in its report that when a seaman is sick or injured abroad, sickness benefit is paid to his family members, as designated by the seafarer for this purpose. The Committee notes this information and requests a copy of the relevant law or regulations.

Article 7. The Government explains in its report that every seafarer has the right to health-care benefit during his transfer from one vessel to another and after the termination of his service, so long as he receives his pension. The Committee notes this information. The Committee recalls that Article 7 requires that if a seafarer's affiliation to the insurance ceases upon termination of an engagement, he should continue to enjoy, as of right, the benefits provided for by the insurance for a period fixed by national laws and regulations in such a way as to cover the normal interval between successive engagements. The Committee again requests information on what provisions have been taken or are envisaged to give full effect to the Convention on this point.
