Solicitud directa (CEACR) - Adopción: 1994, Publicación: 81ª reunión CIT (1994)

With reference to section 68 of Act No. 847 of 19 December 1980 (Conditions of Service of Military Personnel), an application to leave the service is not receivable "(a) where an applicant has not completed his service engagement" and "(d) during a state of seige, in which case the Commander-in-Chief decides whether the application is acceptable"; the Committee has been requesting the Government since 1987 to supply copies of the provisions establishing the length of the period for which military personnel may undertake a service engagement and to supply information on the criteria and any deadlines to be observed in deciding upon an application to resign from the service, in the event of a state of seige, including copies of any regulations or instructions which are applicable.

The Committee notes that once again the Government's report does not contain the requested information and hopes that the Government will supply it in its next report with a view to ensuring that the Convention is being observed in this respect.
