  Qualitative Info
  
  According to migration legislation admission is regulated on the basis of the needs of labour market:
  
  "The task of the Committee [constituted at the seat of each Region] shall be to prepare a report within the last quarter of each year, which shall indicate the existing needs in work force at the Region and the job vacancies by speciality, prefecture and length of employment, which may be covered by thirdcountry nationals. The preparation of the report must take into consideration the criteria laid down by the joint ministerial decision referred to in paragraph 5 and the interests of national economy. This report shall be forwarded to the Ministry of Employment and Social Protection, which shall expedite the delivery of the joint ministerial decision referred to in the next paragraph. This report shall also be forwarded to the Ministry of Interior, Public Administration and Decentralisation. The decision referred to in the first sentence shall appoint the rapporteurs and the secretary of the Committee, who shall be officers of the Directorate for Aliens and Migration of the Region.
  4. On the basis of the report referred to in the preceding paragraph, the Ministers of Interior, Public Administration and Decentralisation, of Foreign Affairs and of Employment and Social Protection shall determine by decision the maximum number of residence permits for employment to be issued each year to third-country nationals by prefecture, nationality, type and length of employment, as well as any other necessary detail. This decision shall be forwarded to the relevant Regions, the OAED, the competent Ministries and to the relevant Greek consular authorities."
  
  Quotas are foreseen and implemented in the case of metaklisis, where according to Article 14, Law 3386/2005 as amended by Article 5 of law 3536/2007, for jobs that cannot be covered by nationals or documented migrants already in the country (based mainly on evidence of labour shortage by the Greek Workforce Employment Organisation-OAED) at the end of each year a special committee established within the limits of the 13 Prefectures draws up an analytical report with accurate job descriptions and qualifications and sets the maximum number of residence permits for dependent work, e.g. for the year 2011 this number was set at 24.071 for the whole of the country.

  Muslims in Western Thrace, the only officially recognised by the Greek state minority, are estimated between 80.000 to 120.000
  
  Estimates for the number of Muslim migrants vary significantly. According to the portal Islam in Greece of the Arts & Humanities Research Council of the University of Surrey, "finding a correct estimation of the Muslim population in national statistics is often problematic and presents methodological constraints. However, the limited and marginally reliable Census data (NSSG 2001) count them at about 7-8% of all foreign nationals. In addition, the last few years have witnessed sharp increases in the number of undocumented migrants and asylum seekers, coming in their majority from Muslim countries."

  According to the NFP report, existing data concerning Roma enrolment in Greece in the past years have not been reliable: Roma pupils are not recorded systematically in school registers, while some schools have reported that Roma enrol simply in order to collect an annual education benefit, but do not actually attend classes. A 1998 - 1999 survey42 showed that 69.7 per cent of the sample aged 18 - 47 had never attended school, while only 10 per cent completed primary education, 2.1 per cent compulsory education and 0.9 per cent higher secondary education; 42.6 per cent of parents stated that their children attend school, but none in secondary education. Among the reasons given for not attending school 29.7 per cent suggested the racist behaviour of teachers, pupils and their parents.
