The Committee notes that the Government's report has not been received. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the matters raised in its previous direct request, which read as follows:

Article 3, paragraph 2, of the Convention. The Committee notes that under section 7 of Resolution No. 1348-J.D. of 14.4.1983 workers' contributions to the insurance scheme concerning old age, invalidity and death are 6.25 per cent of their monthly remuneration, whereas employers' contributions are 5.55 per cent. Since Article 3, paragraph 2, of the Convention provides that seafarers collectively shall not contribute more than half the cost of the pensions payable under the scheme, please state, in accordance with the report form, the amount of: (i) the contributions borne by the seafarers covered by the pension scheme; and (ii) the resources allocated to the pensions payable under that scheme. Please also show (i) as a percentage of (ii).
