E/CN.4/1991/56 page 58 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 "No." Grenada "Yes." Iraq "The organization of seminars and training courses is useful in all scientific and other fields and activities, including this field."
