La Comisión Europea contra el Racismo y la O.N.U. atacan a Cataluña y al País Vasco ¡Porque no tienen otra cosa que hacer!

"14. Existen informes sobre las dificultades a las que a veces se enfrentan los niños de lengua castellana residentes en Cataluña y en el País Vasco cuando se trata de recibir una educación en castellano. Este tipo de casos debería seguirse de cerca.” (Comisión Europea contra el Racismo y la Intolerancia. Enfoque de la ECRI país por país: Informe sobre España. Estrasburgo, 26 de enero de 1999)


“12. Aunque el Comité celebra la amplia autonomía de que gozan las comunidades autónomas en materia de educación, observa con preocupación que en Cataluña y en el País Vasco a los niños de la minoría castellanohablante les puede resultar difícil recibir la educación en su lengua materna. (Convención Internacional sobre la Eliminación de todas las Formas de Discriminación Racial, CERD/C/304/Add.8; 28 de marzo de 1996)


"Section 5 Discrimination Based on Race, Sex, Religion, Disability, Language, or Social Status

National/Racial/Ethnic Minorities

"In June an administrative court in Tarragona considered a challenge to a local university regulation that imposed extensive use of Catalan in university affairs. The court, although leaving some of the regulation intact and declaring itself not competent to rule on the constitutionality of the linguistic law, struck down several sections of the regulation. For example, the court found that the regulation's treatment of certain administrative issues and a requirement that staff use Catalan at all public university functions exceeded university authority and autonomy and were not in conformance with other laws. Another court challenge involved the propriety of the same university's discipline of a professor for supplying copies of the university entrance examination in Spanish, rather than Catalan, to two students requesting Spanish versions. The court ruled in December that the professor was excluded wrongly from the administration of the examinations and praised her for defending the students' rights. The court clearly implied that the university's regulation limiting access to the examination in Spanish was discriminatory and said that it was permissible to foster the use of Catalan but not to do so in a manner that excludes or limits the use of Spanish. The university administration responded that it had no intention of modifying its regulation and intended to appeal the continued suspension of certain aspects of the regulation. Notwithstanding its response, in May it began supplying the entrance examination in Spanish to those who requested it. " ( Para traducción, ver Traductor Google)
