After the European Council conclusions of 23-24 June 2011 calling for the rapid implementation of the European Framework for National Roma Integration Strategies, this note by Tamara Buschek summarises the situation of the Roma in the EU and analyses the existing European legal provisions concerning the Roma (principally in terms of free movement and of non-discrimination) by taking the French government’s measures of August 2010 as a test case. The note finally presents the key initiatives adopted by the European institutions to improve the Roma’s situation in the EU.
