42. Also encourages States to draw up plans and to establish procedures to
implement the Guidelines on Places of Refuge for Ships in Need of Assistance; 18
43. Welcomes the convening of the ninety-fourth (Maritime) session of the
International Labour Conference, from 7 to 23 February 2006, to adopt the
consolidated maritime labour convention;
44. Also welcomes the efforts undertaken by the International Maritime
Organization and the International Labour Organization to develop guidelines on
fair treatment of seafarers in the event of a maritime accident, as a way of enhancing
the protection of the basic human rights of seafarers detained in connection with
maritime accidents;
45. Notes the progress in the implementation of the Action Plan for the
Safety of Transport of Radioactive Material, approved by the Board of Governors of
the International Atomic Energy Agency in March 2004, 19 and encourages States
concerned to continue their efforts in the implementation of all areas of the Action
Plan;
46. Also notes that cessation of the transport of radioactive materials through
the regions of small island developing States is an ultimate desired goal of small
island developing States and some other countries, and recognizes the right of
freedom of navigation in accordance with international law. States should maintain
dialogue and consultation, in particular under the aegis of the International Atomic
Energy Agency and the International Maritime Organization, with the aim of
improved mutual understanding, confidence-building and enhanced communication
in relation to the safe maritime transport of radioactive materials. States involved in
the transport of such materials are urged to continue to engage in dialogue with
small island developing States and other States to address their concerns. These
concerns include the further development and strengthening, within the appropriate
forums, of international regulatory regimes to enhance safety, disclosure, liability,
security and compensation in relation to such transport; 20
47. Once again urges flag States without an effective maritime
administration and appropriate legal frameworks to establish or enhance the
necessary infrastructure, legislative and enforcement capabilities to ensure effective
compliance with, and implementation and enforcement of, their responsibilities
under international law and, until such action is undertaken, to consider declining
the granting of the right to fly their flag to new vessels, suspending their registry or
not opening a registry, and calls upon flag and port States to take all measures
consistent with international law necessary to prevent the operation of substandard
vessels;
48. Welcomes the progress made by the International Maritime Organization
on the establishment of a voluntary International Maritime Organization member
State audit scheme, and looks forward to its further development within the
International Maritime Organization;
49. Looks forward to the results of the ongoing work of the International
Maritime Organization in cooperation with other competent international
organizations, following the invitation extended to it in resolution 58/240 and
