1. With reference to its previous request regarding the freedom of workers to leave their employment, the Committee notes the information supplied by the Government in its report according to which the right of career members of the armed services and persons working in other special services of the State bodies (Ministry of the Interior, militia, etc. ...) to leave the service on their own initiative is governed by the General Military Service Act of the USSR of 12 October 1967, as amended and supplemented, and the regulations governing the terms of recruitment, discharge and service of particular categories of personnel. The Government also indicates that an examination is being made of draft regulations on the service of the officer corps of the armed services, which provide, inter alia, that career officers who have served for ten years may terminate their service in the armed forces at their own request.

The Committee notes this information with interest. It requests the Government to supply a copy of the legislative texts referred to in its report and of the regulations on the service of the officer corps in the armed forces, once adopted.

2. The Committee looks forward to the Government's sending with its next report a copy of the reply by the Public Prosecutor of the USSR, which was referred to as being attached to its last report, but was not received by the ILO.
