Amnesty International criticized Slovenia in its annual report because of its treatment of Roma, and of citizens removed from permanent residence registry. The AI underlined that the Slovenian authorities failed to guarantee rights to a group of people known as “the erased” - several thousand individuals who were in 1992 unlawfully removed from the Slovenian registry of permanent residents. Slovenia criticized over “erased” citizens, Roma They mainly came from other former Yugoslav republics, but never received any kind of compensation, the Slovenian Press Agency (STA) reported. The adoption of the law that would enable retroactive obtaining of permanent resident status for “the erased” was violated by xenophobic statements by a few mediators, while an attempt to table the law at a referendum in order to annul it was in the end denied by the Constitutional Court, the AI report reads. Furthermore, AI points to the discrimination against the Roma population in Slovenia, whose members live in very bad conditions, often without water, electricity and sewage. The report recalls that the UN agencies urged the Slovenian authorities in March 2010 to take steps to resolve the problem of the Roma community and prevent its discrimination in various aspects of social life, including education, accommodation, health and employment.
