Observación General (CEACR) - Adopción: 2024, Publicación: 113ª reunión CIT (2025)

Iraq

The Committee notes with deep concern that, the first report on the Seafarers' Identity Documents Convention (Revised), 2003, as amended (No. 185), due since 2022, has not been received.

The Committee launches an urgent appeal to the Government to send its first report without delay on Convention No. 185, and advises it that, even in the absence of this report, the Committee may fully review the application of the Convention at its next meeting on the basis of available information.

Recalling that technical assistance was provided on this issue in 2023 and 2024 by the International Training Centre of the ILO, the Committee firmly hopes that the Government will soon submit this first report in accordance with its constitutional obligation.
