U.S. Department
of State Human Rights Reports 1998
The Constitution prohibits discrimination on religious grounds, and
the Government does not interfere with the practice of religion.
The Catholic Church, which signed a concordat with the Government in
1954, enjoys special privileges not extended to other religions. These
include the use of public funds to underwrite some church expenses,
such as rehabilitation of church facilities.
