In its reply, the Government of Chile did not refer specifically to this
question, but stated the following:
"... We would be very interested in obtaining information from the Centre
for Human Rights on legal systems in the world which more effectively
guarantee conscientious objection and, hence, freedom of conscience."
Cuba
"There are no obstacles to activities of this nature, but I should like
to point out that our country can offer the services of officials and experts
so that the Centre for Human Rights can gain the knowledge and experience of
Cuban society in this regard."
Dominica
"Dominica does not think it desirable to receive advisory assistance froathe Centre for Human Rights to organize courses and seminars to train selected
officials from our country in the principles of religion and belief."
Dominican Republic
"Although we genuinely have entire freedom of worship, we do not refuse
your offer of training courses and seminars on principles, standards and
resources for freedom of religion and belief, addressed to selected officials
from our country. We are always open to advisory services, since it is our
firm wish to learn more; we therefore accept your offer and, whenever you
wish, shall organize such courses as you consider appropriate."
Ecuador
"As has already been said, Ecuador provides freedom of worship on a broad
basis and would be prepared to co-ordinate with the Centre for Human Rights in
holding courses and seminars on freedom of religion and belief that could lead
to a better knowledge of this important subject. It should be noted that a
number of meetings have been held nationally on the protection of
human rights. Initiatives like this have been favourably welcomed and are
considered very useful."
Germany

Grenada

Iraq
