Repetition Article 6. Facilitation of shore leave, transit or transfer. In the absence of recent information on implementing legislation, the Committee requests the Government to specify the legal provisions which guarantee the right of a foreign seafarer holding a valid seafarer’s identity card to shore leave while the ship is in port or to enter Ireland for the purpose of joining a ship or transferring to another ship. The Committee recalls, in this connection, that the Government, at the time of ratification, had referred to the Aliens Order, 1946, as an instrument implementing this provision. It accordingly requests the Government to indicate whether that Order is still in force.Practical application. The Committee requests the Government to continue to supply up-to-date information in its future reports on the manner in which the Convention is applied in practice, including, for example, statistical information and extracts from reports of the services entrusted with the application of the relevant laws and regulations.Finally, the Committee notes the Government’s statement that it hopes to be in a position to ratify the Seafarers’ Identity Documents Convention (Revised), 2003 (No. 185), in the near future. The Committee invites the Government to provide information on any further developments regarding the ratification of Convention No. 185.
