Resolution CM/ResCMN(2008)1 on the implementation of the Framework Convention for the Protection of National Minorities by Spain

The resolution adopted by the Committee of Ministers on the protection of minorities highlights positive developments such as strengthening the national legislative provisions for combating discrimination, launching initiatives aimed at improving access to social services and the labour market for vulnerable groups, steps taken toward involving Roma in the preparation and implementation of policies that possibly affect them. However, still there are issues of concern, for example problems in the implementation of legislation for combating discrimination. Roma still face discrimination in various areas of social life. The resolution includes also recommendations on minority protection in Spain.
