Discrimination on the basis of political opinion.  In its earlier observation, the Committee noted with interest that, according to the Government’s report, section 95 of the Bill on the Status of Civil Servants and Public Employees, which was before the National Parliament, would repeal Act No. 200 of 17 July 1970, which, by stating that "no public official may engage in activities contrary to public order or to the democratic system established by the Constitution", could give rise to discriminatory practices based on political opinion. The Committee notes from the Government’s report that to date no Act in respect of public servants has been approved and that three Bills are before the National Parliament, of which one has the approval of the Drafting Committee. Recalling that it has been pointing out since 1985 that the section 34 of the abovementioned Act is in contravention of Article 1(1)(a) of the Convention, the Committee again urges the Government to take the measures necessary to repeal Act No. 200 and requests it to continue to provide information in this respect.
