How do the MLC or Maritime Labour Convention amendment procedures differ from those in the IMO conventions?

Both types of amendment procedure – under Article XIV for the Convention as a whole, and Article XV for amendments only to the Code – are based to a certain extent on procedures that are already well established in another agency of the United Nations, the International Maritime Organization (IMO). However, the Article XIV express ratification procedure is closer to the present ILO procedure for revising Conventions. The accelerated or tacit acceptance procedure under Article XV follows the IMO procedures especially with respect to the submission of amendments to Member States and their entry into effect; the main difference relates to the adoption of amendments: here (unlike under the IMO procedures) non-ratifying Members play a role and amendments have to be approved by the International Labour Conference, open to all ILO Members.

  • I think everything typed was very reasonable.
    However, think about this, what if you added a little content?
    I mean, I don’t want to tell you how to run your website,
    but suppose you added a title to maybe get a person’s
    attention? I mean How do the MLC or Maritime Labour Convention amendment procedures differ from those
    in the IMO conventions? | MarineGyaan is kinda plain. You should peek
    at Yahoo’s front page and see how they create post titles to
    get viewers to open the links. You might add a related video or a related pic or two to get readers excited about what you’ve written. Just my opinion, it
    could bring your website a little bit more interesting.
