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

In its 1992 direct request the Committee referred to section 73(2) of the Penal Code, under which persons who live as social parasites on the work of others are considered to be in a dangerous condition by reason of anti-social behaviour, and may be subject to security measures (section 76(2)). The Committee also noted that the security measures applying to anti-social persons are rehabilitation measures (section 80(2)), namely, internment in a specialized work or educational establishment (section 81(a)) or assignment to a labour collective (section 80(1)(b)); the duration of these measures is a minimum of one year and a maximum of four years (section 80(3)).

In order that the Committee could ascertain the practical scope of section 73(2), it asked the Government to provide a copy of any court decisions handed down under the above-mentioned provisions.

The Committee noted from the Government's indication in the report for the period ending 30 June 1991 that the Government had administrative difficulties in locating and obtaining copies of such decisions but that they would be forwarded as soon as possible.

The Committee asks the Government to provide the texts requested.
