1. With reference to the Committee's previous comments, the Government recalls in its report that, in accordance with Extraordinary Presidential Decree No. 057-PCM/93, the Ministry of the Economy and Finance pays the pensions due under Legislative Decree No. 20530 of 1974 to retired employees of the Peruvian Steamship Company (a limited liability company in liquidation), and that these pensions are paid normally. The Committee notes this information. It would be grateful if the Government would continue to provide detailed information on the manner in which the payment of the pensions of retired employees of the above Peruvian Steamship Company is ensured and would also provide information on the situation of former retirees of this company who have been excluded from their pension fund and have not been reinstated by judicial decision under the Convention.
2. The Committee also requests the Government to indicate in its next report whether the new system of private management of pension funds, established by Decree No. 054-97-EF of 13 May 1997, applies to persons employed on board or in the service of vessels flying the Peruvian flag and, if so, to supply information on the impact of this system on the application of the Convention.
3. Finally, the Committee would be grateful if the Government would provide more detailed information on the application of the Convention: (a) by providing precise responses to the questions in the report form for each Article of the Convention; and (b) by communicating, where appropriate, statistics on the number of seafarers covered by the various pension schemes.
