Articles 1(1) and 2(1) of the Convention. Freedom of career members of the armed forces to leave their service. In its previous comments, the Committee requested the Government to indicate whether under Decision No. 13/1998, military officers and other career members of the armed forces can freely leave their service and under which conditions. The Committee noted the Government’s indication that the work of the members of the armed forces is different from the work performed in other sectors, and it is therefore regulated by specific standards which allow them to freely leave their service or under other decisions. The Committee requested the Government to provide information on the conditions of resignation of military officers and other career members of the armed forces.

The Committee notes the absence of information in the Government’s report on this point. The Committee once again requests the Government to indicate the manner in which military officers and other career members of the armed forces can freely leave their service under Decision No. 13/1998 or under other decisions. The Committee also requests the Government to provide a copy of the abovementioned Decision or other relevant text.
