Convention (n° 27) sur l'indication du poids sur les colis transportés par bateau, 1929 - Tchéquie (Ratification: 1993)

The Committee notes the Government’s declaration to the effect that the Notification of the Federal Ministry of Transport No. 38/1990, which provided for certain conditions to ensure safe and smooth operation of lifting devices for manipulation of ISO type containers, was repealed by Act No. 266/1994 concerning railways.

With regard to the legislation applying the provisions of the Convention, the Government, however, indicates that no significant changes have taken place since the submission of its last report on the application of the Convention. The Government indicates that the obligation to mark the gross weight of packages and objects is regulated by CSN 770051 - Marking of packages. However, the Government indicated in its last report that Decrees Nos. 9 and 72 of 1984 would apply the provisions of the Convention. In this respect, the Committee notes that the reference to Decrees Nos. 9 and 72 of 1984 is to legislation from the former Czechoslovakia, and it requests the Government of the Czech Republic to confirm in its next report that these texts have not been modified and thus remain in force. It further asks the Government to supply, with its next report, a copy of Regulation CSN 770051 as well as of Act No. 266/1994.
