Observation (CEACR) - adoptée 1996, publiée 85ème session CIT (1997)

With reference to the comments it has been making for some years concerning the non-military work that conscripts can be required to perform during their compulsory national service, the Committee notes with satisfaction that article 276 of the national Constitution has been amended and, in its new form, provides that, in time of peace, military service shall be voluntary.
