Qualitative Info

There are no serious problems concerning the implementation of the national legislation prohibiting discrimination. In its last report on Bulgaria, adopted on 20 June 2008 and published on 24 February 2009, the European Commission against Discrimination and Intolerance (ECRI) identifies only two problems: the insufficient information provided to the general public about the scope and content of the anti-discrimination legislation and the insufficient training of judges and prosecutors on the implementation of this legislation. No serious problems with the implementation of the anti-discrimination legislation have been outlined in the annual reports on human rights in Bulgaria published by the Bulgarian Helsinki Committee as well.
