SCI 2014 Seafarer Shore Leave Survey Results Announced

With MLC, 2006 in force, one might hope to see a reduction in the number of seafarers without visas; yet, recent data collected by SCI shows that not only are shipowners failing to pay for crewmember visas as required by the Convention but also flag states are failing to enforce the requirement.

The press release is available on our site as SCI 2014 Shore Leave Survey.pdf.
