The Committee notes the report of the Committee on Freedom of Association concerning Case No. 1490, approved by the Governing Body at its 243rd Session (May-June 1989; Official Bulletin, Vol. LXXII, 1989, series B, No. 2, pp. 59-69) which refers, inter alia, to sentences of imprisonment against trade unions for the distribution of tracts considered to be likely to disrupt the public order. The report refers to the application on that occasion of a text of 1939 concerning subversive tracts. The Committee once again requests the Government to supply a copy of the above text or of any other text that has been applied in this connection, as well as copies of any sentences handed down.
