E/CN.4/1991/56 page 42 Saint Vincent and the Grenadines "No steps have been taken by the Government to place limits on the freedom of expression of opinions in St. Vincent and the Grenadines." Sweden "Clashes between members of different religious denominations, or expressions of extremist or fanatical opinions, are virttially non-existent in Sweden." Switzerland "Article 261 of the Swiss Penal Code (CPS) protects individuals against attacks on their freedom of belief and religion by punishing anyone who publicly and basely offends against or ridicules the religious beliefs of others. However, in order for an act to be considered an offence, it need not be likely to cause racial intolerance or intrasigence. In addition, a draft partial revision of the CPS, made necessary by Switzerland's accession to the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination, to take place in 1991, stipulates similar treatment for discrimination based on belief and racial discrimination. Thus, the definition given of racial discrimination includes acts based on the beliefs of others (see CPS, draft art. 261 bis)." Tunisia "Despite the peaceful inter-denominational atmosphere in Tunisia, the legislature has spared no effort to overcome any possible occurrence of extremist or fanatical expressions liable to cause religious intransigence or intolerance. We have already noted that article 53 of the Press Code provides for a prison term of up to one year for anyone who uses a publication to defame a group of persons belonging to a particular race or religion, when the purpose of the defamation is to incite hatred among citizens. It should be added, however, that Act No. 88-32 of 3 May 1988 relating to the organization of political parties has dealt with the question from another angle, to meet the same concern to safeguard freedom of conscience. It states that political parties must: Respect and defend human rights as determined by the Constitution and the international conventions ratified by Tunisia; Banish violence in all forms, as well as fanaticism, racism and any other form of discrimination; Refrain from any activities that might impair the rights and freedoms of others (art. 2 ) . The Act adds that political parties cannot be based, in their principles, activities and programme, on one religion, one language, one race, one sex or one region (art. 3 ) . "
