In its previous direct request, the Committee asked the Government to provide information on the current status of the Civil Service and Administrative Careers Act and on the freedom of public servants to leave the service.

With regard to members of the national army, the Government states that, with a view to ensuring the functioning of the army and its subordination to the authority of the civil Government, the draft text of a basic law respecting the armed forces will be submitted to the National Assembly and will cover, among other matters, the retirement of members of the armed forces.

The Committee requests the Government to supply a copy of the above text once it has been adopted.
