In its previous direct requests, the Committee raised a number of points with regard to the definition of forced or compulsory labour under the terms of Article 1, paragraph 1, and Article 2, paragraphs 1 and 2, of the Convention, in relation to the possibility for civil servants and career servicemen to resign from their employment and forced labour in the event of vagrancy.
