Published verdict
Delete

The law looks obsolete, unjustified, or duplicative.

Summary

This 1952 Federal Council decree instructs the Federal Military Department, in agreement with the Finance and Customs Department, to take the peacetime measures needed for the army to apply the Geneva Conventions protecting war victims. It is a short implementing order with no broader regulatory scheme beyond that administrative mandate and its entry into force.

Verdict reason
This is an old one-off administrative instruction from 1952, tied to the initial implementation of the Geneva Conventions in the army. As presented, it is obsolete: it delegates a task to departments but creates no enduring institutional framework that still justifies a standalone federal decree. Keeping obsolete implementing orders clutters the legal stock without adding clear protection or accountability.
