Editor’s notes from DOLE (1)
The opening phrase "Subject to Article 238" has been rendered inoperative by virtue of Sec. 5 of E.O. No. 111 (1986) which repealed the then Article 238 (Conditions for Registration of Federations or National Unions) and second paragraphs of Articles 239 and 241 “relating to the restructuring of the labor movement along one-union-one industry policy.”
