The Committee recommends that the State party continue to develop and strengthen measures to guarantee that: No child under the minimum age of conscription be enrolled in the army, by establishing and systematically implementing safeguards to verify the age of volunteers, based on objective elements such as birth certificate, school diplomas and, in the absence of documents, medical examination to determine the exact age of the child; Recruitment of children into the army at the age of 16 and 17 is genuinely voluntary, based on an informed decision and only occurs with prior consent of the parents or legal guardians.
a) No se aliste en el ejército a ningún niño por debajo de la edad mínima de reclutamiento, estableciendo y aplicando sistemáticamente salvaguardias para verificar la edad de los voluntarios, sobre la base de elementos objetivos tales como el certificado de nacimiento, los diplomas escolares y, a falta de documentos, un examen médico para determinar la edad exacta de los niños;
