The Committee notes that the Government’s report does not contain information on a point raised in its previous comment. It is therefore bound to repeat its direct request on this point, which read as follows:

Article 8 of the ConventionRe-examination following refusal of a medical certificate. The Committee notes that under section 105 of the Regulations on the physical capacity of the personnel of the merchant navy, fishery and maritime services, a person who has been denied a certificate of fitness after having being examined may request another examination indicating the reasons for such request. Such second examination shall be conducted by persons different from those who conducted the first examination. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would supply information on the practical application of this provision and indicate how it is ensured that the persons conducting further examinations are independent of any shipowner or of any organization of shipowners or seafarers.
