Demande directe (CEACR) - adoptée 2005, publiée 95ème session CIT (2006)

Convention (n° 23) sur le rapatriement des marins, 1926 - Colombie (Ratification: 1933)

The Committee notes the Government’s report, as well as the new texts relating to the establishment, organization and competences of the Ministry for Social Protection.

Part V of the report form. The Committee requests the Government to provide it with general indications on the way in which the Convention is applied, providing, for example, if the statistics produced so far allow it, further information on the number of seafarers repatriated during the year covered by the report, the number and nature of the contraventions reported, etc.

The Committee recalls that the Governing Body of the International Labour Office invited the States parties to Convention No. 23 to contemplate ratifying the Repatriation of Seafarers Convention (Revised), 1987 (No. 166) which would, ipso jure, involve the immediate denunciation of Convention No. 23 (see paragraph 12 of document GB.280/LILS/WP/PRS/1/2 of March 2001). The Committee requests the Government to provide, in its next report, information on any consultations carried out, as necessary, in this regard.
