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

1. Article 2, paragraph 2(c), of the Convention. In its previous comments the Committee noted the practical procedures and provisions governing prison labour. It again expresses the hope that in one of its future reports the Government will provide a copy of any texts that have been issued under section 22(2), section 26(2) and section 35(3) of the Penal Code.

2. In its previous comments the Committee noted that a ten-year engagement was no longer one of the conditions for applying for admission to the various training establishments, but that no text had been adopted to repeal this requirement. The Committee notes from the information in the Government's latest report that this is still the case. It hopes that the Government will shortly be able to inform it of the provisions adopted to bring the law into conformity with the stated practice and with the Convention.
