Convenio sobre la abolición del trabajo forzoso, 1957 (núm. 105) - Italia (Ratificación : 1968)

Article 1(c) of the Convention

1. The Committee noted with interest the Government's statement in its report received in 1984 that sections 1091 and 1094 of the Maritime Code are no longer applied in practice and that it is planned to depenalise them. The Committee notes that the Government's last report contains no information on this matter.

The Committee hopes that the Government will be able to inform it of the measures that have been taken in this respect in its next report.

2. The Committee notes the information supplied by the Government concerning the application of sections 328, 331 and 333 of the Penal Code, under which sentences of imprisonment (involving compulsory labour under the terms of section 23(1) of the Penal Code) may be imposed upon public servants and persons responsible for performing a public service in the event of unjustified refusal or failure to perform or delay in performing their functions or service, or interruption or abandonment of their duties in such a way as to disturb, or with a view to disturbing the regularity of the service.
