Medical Examination (Fishermen) Convention, 1959 (No. 113) - Liberia (RATIFICATION: 1960)

The Committee notes with regret that the Government's report has not been received. It must therefore repeat its previous observation which read as follows:

In its previous observations, it referred to the need for legislation to give effect to Article 2 of the Convention (requirement of a physical fitness certificate for employment on a fishing vessel), Article 3 (nature of the medical examination), Article 4 (period of validity of certificates) and Article 5 (possibility of a further medical examination). It hopes it will soon be possible to make progress in this respect.
