Officers' Competency Certificates Convention, 1936 (No. 53) - Argentina (Ratification: 1955)

The Committee notes the Government’s report and the rules applicable with regard to the recognition of certificates pursuant to the International Convention on Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping for Seafarers, 1978, as amended in 1995, transmitted with the report.

The Committee notes with regret, however, that the Government has not replied to the requests for information made in its previous comments with regard to the practical application of the legislation on the recognition of foreign competency certificates. It requests the Government to transmit this information in its next report, as well as the number of national and foreign competency certificates recognized and issued during the course of the last examination period.
