Intervenes to secure the operationalisation of the signed agreement between the Mombasa Seafarers Charter and the Government of Kenya. 2. Secures inclusivity and equal participation of all seafarers organisations as stakeholders in decision and policy making, and development of any regulations pertaining the blue economy and maritime affairs from time to time as per Article 232 of the Constitution and Section 11 of the Merchant Shipping Act, 2009. 3. Recommends the establishment of public seafarers recruitment and replacement services for seafarers domiciled in the Kenyan territory which will provide equal access to seafarers without discrimination, corruption and favouritism as far as the Maritime Labour Convention, 2006 is concerned. 4. Secures the enforcement of International Convention on the Safety of Life at Sea to enable seafarers gain employment in port facility and ship trading in Kenyan waters. 5. Secures the ratification of the Cabotage Law by the Government to allow seafarers to have employment opportunities within ships trading in the Kenyan territory. 6. Secures equal representation of seafarers organisations as stakeholders to the Board of Directors of the Kenya Maritime Authority, Kenya Ferry Services, Kenya Coast Guard and the Blue Economy Board as required by Section 6(d) of the Merchant Shipping Act, 2009, and Article 10 of the Constitution. 7.
