Revised Laws of Saint Lucia (2021)

133.   Discharge on change of registration

Where a Saint Lucian ship ceases to be registered as such, any seaman employed in the ship shall be discharged from the ship, unless he or she consents in writing to continue his or her employment in the ship and, in such a case the provisions of this Act relating to the payment of a seaman's wages and the power of the Registrar of Seamen or other proper officer to decide disputes about wages shall apply in relation to his or her wages as if the ship had remained registered in Saint Lucia.
