The Condition Assessment Scheme (CAS) for oil tankers was adopted in 2001 and is applicable to all single-hull tankers of 15 years or older. Although the CAS does not specify structural standards in excess of the provisions of other IMO conventions, codes and recommendations, its requirements stipulate more stringent and transparent verification of the reported structural condition of the ship and that documentary and survey procedures have been properly carried out and completed. The Scheme requires that compliance with the CAS is assessed during the Enhanced Survey Program of Inspections concurrent with intermediate or renewal surveys currently required by resolution A.744(18), as amended.--Publisher's description.

This report was developed to review the Health Workforce Enhancement Plan 2013-2016 (HWEP), which had been extended until 2019, and to function as a human resources for health (HRH) situational analysis in preparation for the development of a national HRH strategic plan. The HWEP was developed as a response to Papua New Guinea Health Workforce Crisis: A Call to Action, a 2011 World Bank report that recommended the country adopt a strategy to increase pre-service and in-service training, staff for support services, and quality-enhancing non-salary budget expenditures, known in the report as Scenario 5. A recommended training schedule up to 2030 has also been developed to guide the implementation of such a strategy.
