The Committee notes the information supplied by the Government in its latest reports.

For a number of years it has been drawing the Government's attention to the absence from national laws of provisions giving effect to Article 1, paragraph 1, of the Convention, which provides that any package or object of 1,000 kilograms (one metric ton) or more gross weight consigned for transport by sea or inland waterway shall have its gross weight plainly and durably marked upon it on the outside before it is loaded on a ship or vessel.

In the reports received in 1986 and 1987, the Government stated that measures would be taken to given effect to this Article of the Convention and that a draft text to that effect was under consideration.

In its latest reports, the Government repeats that the draft text in question is still under discussion. The Committee hopes that the Government will do everything in its power to ensure that the text in question is adopted in the very near future and that it will also ensure the application of the provision of paragraph 4 of Article 1, indicating on whom falls the obligation for having the weight marked.
