ECRI welcomed positive developments, but also highlighted “persistent concerns” in its recommendations. These include: the monitoring of the application of the Immigration Acts 2003 and 2004 in relation to allegations of racial profiling by the Garda Siochána, and enacting legislation to counter it; the establishment of an independent body to monitor discrimination on the grounds of ethnic origin, colour, citizenship, religion and language; the involvement of local authorities in implementing the National Traveller/Roma Integration Strategy pertaining to housing and the adoption and drafting of the Residence and Protection Bill to put in place a procedure for dealing with applications for asylum and subsidiary protection, to introduce a long-term residence status and to introduce procedures for registration of non-national minors under 16.
