Direct Request (CEACR) - adopted 1990, published 77th ILC session (1990)

Forced Labour Convention, 1930 (No. 29) - Honduras (Ratification: 1957)

The Committee notes with regret that no report has been received from the Government. It hopes that a report will be supplied for examination by the Committee at its next session and that it will contain full information on the following matters:

1. In its previous direct request, the Committee noted that the Act respecting military organisation of 1954, which was supplied by the Government, contains no provisions concerning the conditions governing the resignation of military personnel and that section 137 of the Act establishes that the executive branch shall issue the necessary regulations to give effect to the provisions of the Act.

The Committee noted that the regulations issued to give effect to the Act respecting military organisation have not been supplied, with particular reference to those establishing the conditions governing resignation from the service, which were requested by the Committee.

The Committee hopes that these texts will be supplied with the next report.

2. The Committee requests the Government to supply a copy of the Penal Code, enacted on 23 August 1983, which has been in force since 24 August 1984.
