Qualitative Info

 

In 2012 dismantling camps and offering free flights and financial incentives for Roma to return to their countries of origin continue. Though, at the end of August 2012, the government published a circular on “evacuation of illegal camps: anticipation and attendant measures”. The circular stipulates that clearances would only be carried out on the basis of court orders and ideally with a plan for alternative accommodation having been established first.
