Repatriation of Seamen Convention, 1926 (No. 23) - Djibouti (Ratification: 1978)

The Committee notes from the Government's report, that the regulations to implement the Maritime Affairs Code are still in the process of being examined and that, consequently, the Convention is not yet strictly applied. It trusts that the Government will shortly be in a position to inform the Committee that the above regulations have been adopted and to provide a copy of them with its next report.

Article 6 of the Convention. Recalling its previous comments, the Committee hopes that the Government will not fail to transmit a copy of the instructions which it planned to issue to diplomatic representatives and consular authorities with regard to the role that they are to play in the repatriation of seafarers, particularly with regard to giving them the expenses necessary for repatriation in advance.
