7. The Committee regrets that the State party has not adopted a comprehensive anti-discrimination legislation yet, but rather relies on different acts affording different levels of protection to different groups of individuals (art. 2).
The Committee recommends that the State party take steps to adopt comprehensive anti-discrimination legislation, guaranteeing protection for all against discrimination in the enjoyment of economic, social and cultural rights, as stipulated in article 2, paragraph 2, of the Covenant. The Committee recommends that the State party ensure that such legislation also protects against discrimination on the grounds of sexual orientation as well as disability. The Committee draws the State party’s attention to its general comment No. 20 (2009) on non-discrimination in economic, social and cultural rights.
