Convention (n° 147) sur la marine marchande (normes minima), 1976 - Aruba

Article 2 of the Convention. Minimum standards. The Committee has been noting the Government’s statements in previous reports to the effect that there are no merchant ships registered in Aruba nor are there any persons engaged in the profession of seafarer. The Committee has also been noting the Government’s indications in earlier reports concerning the application of other maritime Conventions that it planned to consult with employers’ and workers’ organizations on the possibility of formally terminating the acceptance of the obligations of these Conventions on behalf of Aruba. In its last report, the Government merely indicates that there have been no modifications in law or in practice regarding the Convention. The Committee therefore requests the Government to re-examine its obligations arising out of this Convention in the light of current conditions in the shipping sector and to consider possible action, as appropriate, in relation to those instruments which may be found to be without object or to have ceased to apply in Aruba.
