The Committee notes the adoption of the Shipping Act 2004, as well as the recent establishment of the Office of Maritime Administration (OMA), which is responsible for all matters relating to the application of this Convention but not yet fully operational.

According to section 130(1) of the Shipping Act, the Minister may make regulations providing for the issue to Saint Vincent and the Grenadines seafarers of seafarers’ cards in such form and containing such particulars with respect to the holders thereof and such other particulars, as may be prescribed by the regulations. Section 131(1) provides that the Minister may make regulations providing for the issue to persons who are or have been employed in Saint Vincent and the Grenadines ships of discharge books in such form and containing such particulars with respect to the holders thereof and such other particulars, as may be prescribed by the regulations. The Committee asks the Government to communicate a copy of the regulations adopted under sections 130(1) and 131(1) of the Shipping Act. It further requests the Government to submit a detailed report indicating the specific sections of these regulations that give effect to each of the Articles of the Convention, as required by Part II of the report form adopted by the Governing Body of the ILO.
