(g) Freedom of access to public service of a non-political character. This requirengat Owasf 48ded by the Military GovePage. 1 Thof Basic Law provides for the free accessibility of the civil service under conditions which appear to deny this accessibility (Article 276). There is no provision for -a non-political civil service. This requirement does not therefore appear to have
been met.
(h) Ineligibility of civil servants to simultaneous membership in the Volkstag. This is another requirement imposed by the Military Governors. It is contrary to German practice although some members of the Council claim to agree with it. At present, however, there is no doubt that the Basic Law provides for the contrary principle in Article 62. In this respect the requirement has been definitely rejected.
