1. Article 2, paragraph 2(c) of the Convention. In its previous comments, the Committee noted that, under section 35(3) of the Penal Code, the procedure for the employment of persons sentenced to penal labour is determined by an Order, and, under sections 22(2) and 26(2) the working conditions and conditions of employment of persons sentenced to imprisonment involving compulsory labour and of those sentenced to ordinary imprisonment are determined by Decree. The Committee also noted the information supplied by the Government concerning the practical procedure and provisions applicable to prison labour, and requested the Government to supply copies of the texts to be issued under the above sections.

The Committee takes note of the information provided by the Government in its report, to the effect that it will not fail to forward the above texts when they are adopted. The Committee requests the Government to provide a copy of the texts as soon as they have been adopted.

2. Freedom of public servants and career servicemen to leave the service. In its previous request, the Committee asked the Government to provide a copy of any text establishing the conditions and arrangements under which the undertaking is made to serve the State for a predetermined period in exchange for training which has been received. The Committee notes from the Government's report that a ten-year engagement is no longer one of the conditions for applying for admission to the various training establishments. The Committee requests the Government to provide a copy of the texts repealing the requirement of a ten-year period of service and of the main texts currently governing admission to training establishments, particularly those which provide training for a career in administration. The Committee repeats its request to the Government to supply a copy of the laws and regulations governing the length of service and resignation of career servicemen who, according to the indications supplied by the Government in a previous report, are not covered by the Labour Code or the General Conditions of Service of Public Servants.
