| Qualitative Info |
Danish law on the prohibition of discrimination in access to goods and services does not cover statelessness as a suspect ground. However, discrimination on account of statelessness may raise the question of indirect discrimination on ground of ethnic origin. As regards employment, discrimination on account of statelessness also raises the question of direct discrimination on ground of national origin. No cases appear to have been reported. |
