Luxembourg – 15th Session – 2012 Scroll to: National Report (Read about the first cycle review) 14. Finally, the law has introduced a new basis for obtaining the status of Luxembourg national by birth, based on jus soli. Any child of foreign parents, one of whom was also born in Luxembourg, shall possess Luxembourg nationality. 22. Since 2009, political changes affecting equal rights for women and men have focused on promoting equality between women and men and combating discrimination between them in order fully to involve both sexes in all the main spheres of public and private life such as communications and the media, economic activity and work, society, education, the family and the world of relationships. 31. In the field of legislation, it should be mentioned that a review of legislation on domestic violence is currently being discussed in parliament. The basic guidelines for the reform are the need for better protection for victims, consideration for the interests of children and ensuring perpetrators are accountable. Moreover, the change in the legal age for marriage and the abrogation of the period during which a woman may not remarry after the death of her husband or the cessation of cohabitation preceding divorce are also being considered by parliament. 32. In order to encourage a fair sharing of domestic, financial, political and societal responsibilities between men and women beyond the requirements of the law, the Luxembourg Government has implemented the following measures: Since 2009, as part of its mission to provide information and raise awareness, three public-information campaigns to bring about a change in mentality, with as their starting point existing male and female stereotypes and their impact in the private and professional spheres Since 2006, polls have been carried out at regular two-year intervals to determine the public’s opinion and perception of the themes of gender equality and the factors capable of influencing their perception “Mega on Tour” meetings have instituted an open dialogue on the theme of gender equality with secondary-education pupils The affirmative-action programme to establish de facto equality between men and women is being continued in private-sector firms and has been extended to the public sector A “Diversity in Business” (DivBiZ) network which brings together key players in the economic sphere to encourage the presence of both men and women at all levels in firms and the presence of women on boards of management The provision to firms of tools such as Logib-Lux and the ABAKABA teaching programme to combat wage inequality Partnership with professional associations and organizations to encourage entrepreneurship in women, in particular through the “Female Entrepreneurship Ambassadors Luxembourg” (FEALU) project Actions to enhance public awareness of human rights, essentially organized around two themes: Training on the policy of gender equality for all employees recruited by the State and local authorities and Campaigns to raise awareness addressing questions relating to stereotyping and topics linked to the lack of equality and respect for integrity, as illustrated by cases of discrimination or domestic violence. Campaigns targeting both the perpetrators and victims of domestic violence were organized annually with a view to preventing, providing assistance and affording protection A theme-based approach to all aspects of prostitution 33. Special attention is now given to the role of boys and men in all equality policies. 34. The Government has adopted gender-neutral terminology so as to shift the focus from violence against women and integrate it with the issue of gender-based violence against children and men. It is fully aware that gender-based violence of all forms is a serious phenomenon and that although worldwide it affects mainly women and children, it also affects men. In order to help, provide guidance and strengthen women victims, it is necessary also to involve the men who are responsible for violence by holding them accountable and providing guidance. 38. Since 2002, Luxembourg has had an independent and neutral committee known as the “Ombuds-Comité fir d’Rechter vum Kand” (ORK), responsible for implementing and promoting the Convention on the Rights of the Child. 39. The new Act on Assistance for Children and Families has instituted the necessary legal framework for early and diversified management of harmful situations that may affect children and their families. It emphasizes prevention and the introduction of a social welfare system independent of the courts and which gives priority to the participation of those concerned. It is no longer institutions, but the needs of the children and young adults in distress and of their families, that serve to determine well-defined and more individualized assistance measures. 40. A new type of refuge facility for minors was opened in January 2012 in Luxembourg City. It is able to accommodate, without the need for any formalities, minors in crisis (street children, runaways, unaccompanied minors, etc.). A specialized team works in consultation with the young persons concerned and endeavours to find solutions to their life crisis. The facility provides accommodation for a limited number of days to allow the necessary procedures to take place, whether with the courts or the persons holding parental authority. 41. In recent years there has been a huge improvement in the situation of education and care outside the family and school. The number of education and care services (crèches, day-care centres and drop-in centres) and of parental assistants has increased constantly. The childcare service voucher, which was introduced in 2009, provides financial support for the education and care of children depending on the social and financial situation of the parents and has increased the availability of day-care facilities for children from birth to 12 years old. As a result, the number of places available in educational and care facilities and those offering parental assistance increased almost fivefold between 2004 and 2011, from 7,712 to 37,833. 42. Out of its concern to guarantee and ensure the quality of educational and care facilities for children, in 2012 the Government took a number of measures at the political, legislative and administrative levels, as well as educational and organizational measures. To guarantee access for children to socio-educational facilities and to ensure the quality of education in educational and care services for children, two draft bills and seven Grand-Ducal regulations were introduced, providing, in particular, for concrete measures to ensure the quality of the facilities and educational activities In connection with the introduction of the childcare service voucher, an Internet site, the “Child-care portal” was set up to enable parents to obtain information on education and care facilities as a whole, to compare them and to obtain detailed information on how the childcare voucher works Teaching staff are the key to high-quality services, and the Government gives priority to ensuring staff have access to in-service training. The site www.enfancejeunesse.lu enables staff to obtain information on all the training available from approved in-service training services 43. Since 2009, the law has ensured that minors who find themselves involved in a legal procedure have the right independently to receive free legal assistance, regardless of their parents’ means as well as the right to be heard in any procedure that concerns them, and to the appointment of an ad hoc tutor if their interests and those of their legal representatives are opposed. 44. In 2010, the Act of 9 July 2004 on the legal effects of certain partnerships, which offers persons of the same sex or of opposite sexes wishing to live together the possibility of declaring a partnership with the registrar was reinforced to provide greater legal security and transparency to the partners, their children and third parties. While the law does not prevent simple adoption by a person belonging to a partnership, full adoption is possible only for spouses who are not judicially separated. 45. Meanwhile, Luxembourg has continued to adapt its legislation to protect the rights of children by, in particular: Approval of the Hague Convention of 19 October 1996 The Act of 16 July 2011 which implements one of the recommendations of the 2008 universal periodic review, in particular by amending the Criminal Code and the Code of Criminal Procedure to specify provisions in respect of indecent assault, rape, sexual exploitation of minors, the sale, distribution or public display of pornographic material and the propagation of messages of a violent nature such as seriously to violate human dignity, criminalization of the consultation of child pornography on the Internet, criminalization of soliciting children for sexual purposes and the adoption by Luxembourg of exterritorial criminal jurisdiction, referred to as “personal jurisdiction” for the perpetrators of certain crimes who are resident in Luxembourg 46. In addition, in 2012 a bill was introduced to amend several provisions of the Criminal Code concerning efforts to combat sexual abuse and the sexual exploitation of children. 47. A bill to amend the provisions in respect of marriage was introduced in 2012, and is currently being discussed in parliament. In particular, it makes provision for marriage between persons of the same sex and reforms adoption so as to: Authorize simple adoption by two married persons of the same sex Set the age requirement for both adoptive parents at 25 years Extend the possibility of adopting a spouse’s child (“Stiefkindadoption”) to encompass the adoption of a partner’s child Revoke the possibility of adoption at the request of the adoptee when the conditions authorizing “Stiefkindadoption” are no longer met Make capacity for discernment rather than a predetermined age the condition for minors to give consent 77. As soon as they are awarded refugee status in Luxembourg, all persons recognized as refugees are entitled to the system of social support known as the “guaranteed minimum income” (Revenu minimum garanti or RMG), with the exception of persons under the age of 25 who have no dependent children. 79. Refugees are also entitled to family benefits for their children (monthly family allowance, maternity benefit, schooling allowance, disabled child supplementary allowance) as well as specific study benefits, as are all residents and workers in Luxembourg. 80. Adults and children suffering from severe disabilities or diseases receive aids in cash or in kind under the dependence-insurance scheme, which is part of compulsory sickness insurance. 83. Special efforts are made to provide schooling for the children of applicants for international protection: coordination by the Department responsible for the schooling of foreign children in the Ministry of Education, the attention of intercultural mediators and financial subsidies for communes, in proportion to the number of children of applicants for international protection attending nursery/primary school. 87. In response to criticism over a lack of transparency in respect of removal, and in particular forced removal, a Grand-Ducal regulation has laid down rules of good conduct to be observed by officials responsible for enforcing expulsions. The rules specify, in particular, that: The removal may be suspended if its continuation threatens the security of the person concerned, other passengers, crew members, members of the escort or observers The removal may not take place if the person is medically unfit to travel Family unity must be preserved, unless a member of the family deliberately avoids the removal measure Due consideration is to be given to the special needs of vulnerable persons, in particular children and elderly persons The members of the escort are not to be armed when carrying out the removal; they are to wear civilian clothes and the wearing of masks is prohibited A report, that includes any observations by a neutral observer, is to be made on the removal measure The members of the escort are to receive special training; the training is both theoretical and practical. Its purpose is to acquaint staff with: The need to ensure respect for the dignity and integrity of persons on whom a security search is being carried out The need to respect the dignity of persons who are to be removed for the whole duration of the remoaval by air The need to ensure that the menu proposed to a person being removed is compatible with his or her religious convictions Whenever the removal involves a charter flight, the presence of a representative of the Ministry and of a medical assistant is systematically required. In addition, the presence of an impartial, neutral and independent observer, designated by the Minister, is authorized from the time of departure from the airport until arrival at the destination. A framework agreement was signed in 2011 by the Government and the Luxembourg Red Cross in this connection. Finally, the Minister may decide to attach a representative of the Ministry and a medical assistant to the escort if the removal is carried out on a regular flight or by land. In 2011, 26 forced returns were carried out, in comparison with 59 in 2010 and 52 in 2009 90. The functional purpose of the Centre, as reflected in the Act of 28 May 2009 concerning the detention centre and the Grand-Ducal regulation of 17 August 2011 for its implementation, is to ensure that detainees have as much freedom as possible, while ensuring that the purpose of detention is met. To this end, during the day detainees are free to move about in the unit in which they are being held and free to use the exercise yard. They are also by and large free to communicate with the outside world by permanent access to the phone. They may also communicate by fax, e-mail and surface mail. Everything is done to facilitate visits, the only condition being the requirement for visitors to provide documentary proof of their identity before being allowed to make a visit. Recreational, sports and cultural or artistic activities are offered daily to detainees, as well as literacy or language courses provided by the Ministry of Education, which have recently become available. Detainees receive a daily allowance of 3 euros and may carry out simple maintenance tasks for the Centre, for which they are paid 2 euros per hour. Detainees are able freely to use their own assets and may avail themselves of canteen services from an outside provider. They are also able to transfer their assets to anyone of their choosing and to receive or transfer money via the Centre’s bank account. If the detainees do not have proper clothing, the Centre provides it for the duration of their stay. 92. The average length of detention for all categories of detainee is currently 49 days. It should be pointed out that under the relevant Act, the Centre may hold families with children for a maximum of 72 hours. 98. Efforts to combat all forms of discrimination and intolerance must begin at the earliest possible age at school. In Luxembourg’s education system, all children above 3 years of age are entitled to schooling regardless of their parents’ status. All children who have reached the age of 4 years by 1 September each year are required to attend school. This obligation applies for 12 consecutive years from 1 September of the relevant year. 99. In order to avoid children who have learning difficulties or severe behavioural problems from being excluded from school before they obtain a qualification, upper secondary schools organize the following activities or classes: Educational and behavioural support Support with schoolwork Extracurricular cultural, sporting and community activities 100. The citizenship skills that children should develop from primary school help them to understand their place in the world, their rights and their duties. Pupils develop awareness both of the values necessary in order to live together (non-violence, cooperation, respect, acceptance, solidarity, empathy and justice) and of the sense of group identity (family, school, friends, the national community and humankind). 101. In post-primary education, as part of “moral and social training” the subject known as “Practical philosophy” includes a programme designed to encourage a culture that values democracy, peace and the development of a sense of citizenship that is thoughtful, critical, active, cooperative and responsible. 102. Civic education is intended to nurture human relations in a democratic society, to provide a matrix for activities that bring together partners from within and outside school for purposes of cooperation, participation and commitment and lastly to offer a multidisciplinary activity that involves all subject areas. 103. Civic-education modules have been incorporated into all levels of vocational training. In the next few years there are plans to adapt them to the other branches of post-primary education. 104. A new textbook on civic education will be available after the beginning of the 2012/13 school year. As regards its pedagogical concept, the manual is both action- and skills-based. The skills may be subdivided into three categories: Acquiring knowledge and putting it into practice Using methods Judging and acting 105. The specific human rights skills, which broadly overlap with overall social and civic skills, are gradually developed at three levels: Judgement Action and Mastering certain methods of work 106. There are three fields of education corresponding to these three levels: Learning about human rights Learning through human rights Learning for human rights 107. In order to reduce the school drop-out rate and limit exclusion from school, a plan of action for the inclusion of pupils with specific needs has been developed and in 2011 a commission on reasonable accommodations was set up. Children who are ill or in hospital also receive greater attention. 109. A course on education for citizenship is provided at the University of Luxembourg to future primary education teachers. 110. The Government has set up the Educational reception unit (Cellule d’accueil scolaire pour élèves nouveaux arrivants – CASNA) for foreign-language pupils who have recently arrived in Luxembourg. The unit provides information in different languages on the Luxembourg school system and the assistance available for children speaking foreign languages. All new arrivals aged between 12 and 18 must pass through CASNA before enrolling in a class or vocational training. 111. In order to enable foreign-language children to keep in touch with their mother tongue while learning Luxemburgish, French and German, some lessons in the Luxembourg school programme are now taught in Portuguese during the primary-school programme. The teachers for the lessons are recruited and paid by the respective embassies. 112. In order to help children of preschool age integrate into school, Portuguese-mother-tongue assistants may assist preschool teachers for a few hours a week. 114. In order to facilitate dialogue between foreign-language-speaking parents, school authorities, teachers and pupils, the Ministry of Education has recruited intercultural mediators speaking Albanian, Creole (Cape Verdean), Chinese, Italian, Portuguese, Serbo-Croat, Arabic, Farsi and Russian, in addition to languages commonly used in Luxembourg. These help mainly at information meetings and discussions between teachers, parents and pupils by providing translation and intercultural mediation. 133. Patients who are legal minors are guaranteed quality psychiatric care by a range of health-care services, which has expanded in recent years, in particular as a result of the development of a child psychiatry service (minors aged from 0 to 13 years) and a national juvenile psychiatry service (minors aged from 14 to 18 years). 134. In 2012, the national juvenile psychiatry service moved into new premises and the number of beds increased from 15 to 23. The service also has a new day-care centre where an additional 15 young people may receive psychiatric care during the day. 144. There is no discrimination between Luxembourgers and foreigners in access to social housing or in obtaining individual housing support. In recent years ad hoc measures have been taken on behalf of certain categories of people (such as children, disabled persons and low-income households) and to promote social intermingling. Legislation on rental tenancy provides extensive protection for the rights of tenants and entrusts communes with providing, in so far as possible, housing for all persons domiciled on their territory. The Government has announced the introduction of a rental subsidy in 2013 to assist households in rental accommodation who are below the poverty line. A reform of personal housing subsidies is currently being prepared. 4. The Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) noted that Luxembourg was undertaking several initiatives at the national level to promote human rights education in schools, including teacher training. Activities related to the annual International Day of Commemoration to honour the victims of the Holocaust had also been organized. OHCHR also noted that several activities had been undertaken to celebrate the sixtieth anniversary of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. 5. OHCHR also noted that a special issue of the Courrier de l’Éducation Nationale had been dedicated to peace education. It contained several examples of good practices for primary schools of education for peace, human rights and non-violent conflict resolution. A book for primary school students, entitled “Mission: Stopp die Armut!”, had been jointly elaborated by the Ministry of National Education and the Ministry of Cooperation. The book aimed to sensitize children to the different aspects of poverty. Training sessions were also organized for teachers and students on dialogue, participation and conflict-resolution to favour the development of democratic schools and to prevent violence. OHCHR also noted that, in primary schools, children were sensitized to issues such as rights, duties, participation, respect and values for living together. 6. With respect to secondary schools, OHCHR noted that a multidisciplinary programme had been developed in Luxembourg for education on democratic citizenship aimed to promote a democratic culture, peace and the development of a reflective, critical, cooperative and responsible citizenship. 7. OHCHR also noted that the University of Luxembourg organized pre-service training on education for democratic citizenship and human rights, for post-primary teachers. 14. According to UNHCR, Luxembourg did not detain persons who applied for asylum at the border. Those detained mainly belong to two categories: asylum seekers undergoing “Dublin” procedures and, more rarely, persons who applied for asylum in immigration detention centres. However, the 28 May 2009 Act on the centre de rétention (the detention centre for migrants residing in an irregular situation on the territory) and the 1 July 2011 Act, implementing the European Union Returns Directive explicitly allowed detention of unaccompanied children. The regulation stipulating the conditions and operating rules of the detention centre did not contain any provisions adapting the system to the needs of unaccompanied children. UNHCR recommended that the Luxembourg embed in legislation the current good practice of not detaining unaccompanied children; and consider alternatives to detention for vulnerable persons. 15. The establishment of a new detention centre for aliens awaiting deportation (including rejected asylum seekers), opened in summer 2011 in Findel, was noted by UNHCR. The new centre could accommodate 88 people. Men and women lived on different corridors. Families with children could only be held for a maximum of 72 hours. According to UNHCR, overall, the conditions in Findel were good and were a significant improvement on those in the Schrassig prison, where such persons had previously been held. Summary of stakeholders' information 5. CCDH recommended that Luxembourg should give favourable consideration to its request for the establishment of a House of Human Rights, to include CCDH, the Centre for Equal Treatment, the Ombuds-Committee for children’s rights and the Ombudsman, which would create synergies and strengthen cooperation between those bodies. 10. CCDH encouraged the Government to follow the recommendations of the Committee on the Elimination of Discrimination against Women, concerning prostitution in Luxembourg, particularly those advocating the adoption of programmes aimed at discouraging demand and dissuading women from turning to prostitution, by introducing resettlement and assistance programmes for women wishing to give up prostitution, and by developing and supporting sexual education programmes based on gender equality. 13. With regard to religious communities, CCDH noted that the Catholic Church enjoyed privileges guaranteed by educational legislation. 18. CCDH noted that, despite the goodwill of staff and the CPL’s policy of protecting the bond between mother and infant, the conditions provided for very young children (from 0 to 2 years) born of detainees whose pregnancy had terminated during or just prior to their incarceration were unsatisfactory. CCDH recommended ensuring minimum supervision, both for expectant mothers and for infants living in a very limited and unstimulating space. 22. Concerning child psychiatry, although a great deal of effort had gone into providing ambulatory and residential child psychiatry facilities, CCDH was surprised that the question of minors hospitalized without their consent had not been reviewed in order to offer them and their legal representatives better administrative, judicial, medico-social and educational guarantees, in accordance with international standards and the Convention on the Rights of the Child in particular. 23. CCDH was concerned at the fact that voluntary termination of pregnancy required women to undergo a compulsory psychosocial examination. CCDH also recommended setting up a programme of action for sexual and relational education for all, starting from the level of elementary schooling. 24. With regard to the schooling of the children of asylum seekers, CCDH had noted that the communes received subsidies from the State for every child they took in, and that in response to the growing diversity of the school population and in order to improve the performance of pupils, Luxembourg had taken a series of measures, such as a thorough reform of the education system allowing for differentiated teaching and the introduction of skills-based education and a reprieve system to reduce drop-out rates. CCDH recommended assessing the real integrative impact of the reforms and following them up by offering appropriate language teaching and combating school failure. 29. End Child Prostitution, Child Pornography and Trafficking of Children for sexual purposes-Luxembourg (ECPAT-Luxembourg) recommended that Luxembourg ratify the Optional Protocol on the Convention on the Rights of the Child on a Communications Procedure. 35. ALOS-LDH recommended that Luxembourg submit its delayed national reports to the Committee for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination. ECPAT-Luxembourg also recommended that Luxembourg submit its initial report under the Optional Protocol to the Committee on the Rights of the Child on the Sale of Children, Child Prostitution and Child Pornography due in 2013. 42. ACAT-FIACAT noted that the living conditions and psychosocial accompaniment of detained immigrants had notably improved. However, ACAT-FIACAT regretted that people under an expulsion order were routinely placed in immigration detention, even if they did not in any way jeopardize national security or public order. No alternative to administrative detention had been put in place and administrative detainees often stayed in enclosed facilities for prolonged periods of up to six months. ACAT-FIACAT was also concerned by the new possibility to detain families with children, although it was forbidden to hold them in the Centre for more than 72 hours. ACAT-FIACAT recommended introducing alternatives to immigration detention and restricting the use of immigration detention to cases of people who represent a danger for national security or public order, and prohibiting in all circumstances the immigration detention of minors and victims of human trafficking. It also recommended to strictly limit immigration detention to the time necessary to organise people’s transfer to their set destination country, and to avoid as much as possible any additional detention for people who have just finished serving a prison sentence. 45. With regard to juvenile justice, ALOS-LDH and ACAT-FIACAT regretted the delay in the construction of the socio-educational centre, since minors continued to be held in prison, which was in breach of international rules. ACAT-FIACAT recommended ensuring that the security unit for minors comes swiftly into service so that children are no longer detained in the prison centre for adults. 46. CNFL noted that Luxembourg had still not adopted a strategy to combat female genital mutilation (FGM). CNFL recommended that Luxembourg law should explicitly punish persons practising FGM as well as parents or holders of parental authority who consented to the practice of FGM, for acts occurring both on Luxembourg territory and abroad. CNFL also recommended that Luxembourg should make legislative provision for the possibility of retaining a child within Luxembourg in the event of a risk of FGM abroad. 49. ECPAT-Luxembourg stated that Luxembourg was a destination country for human trafficking, and a certain number of children in Luxembourg were unaccompanied asylum seekers, refugees or persons without appropriate legal documentation. They were particularly vulnerable to sexual exploitation or at risk of not benefiting from adequate protection or care. 52. According to ECPAT-Luxembourg, provisions contained in the Penal Code of Luxembourg and other laws relating to children, were relatively comprehensive, covered many forms of violence against children, including commercial sexual exploitation of children and many were in conformity with international law. However, there were several gaps in the national legislation on the sexual exploitation of children that should be addressed. An important gap, which left children unprotected, was the lack of a clear definition of “child pornography” and “child prostitution” in Luxemburgish legislation. 53. ECPAT-Luxembourg recommended that Luxembourg provide a clear definition of child prostitution and child pornography in Luxembourg legislation, in line with the international obligations under the OP-CRC-SC and with the definition provided in the CoE Convention on the Protection of Children against Sexual Exploitation and Sexual Abuse. ECPAT-Luxembourg recommended undertaking awareness raising campaigns, including in the educational system, in cooperation with other relevant stakeholders, addressing a broad range of issues related to commercial sexual exploitation of children. 54. ECPAT-Luxembourg noted that comprehensive and effective implementation of the National Plan of Action (NPA) to combat the sexual exploitation of children, adopted in 1996, had not taken place thus far and no information was available regarding the impact of the NPA, as it appeared that no impact assessment had been conducted. It also noted a lack of coordination between key stakeholders (governmental and non-governmental) at national level in order to enable an efficient implementation of the NPA. ECPAT-Luxembourg recommended that Luxembourg update the National Plan of Action to combat the sexual exploitation of children and ensure its implementation, monitoring and evaluation. It also recommended that a multidisciplinary working group be appointed to support the implementation of the NPA. 55. The Global Initiative to End All Corporal Punishment of Children (Global Initiative) stated that the Law on Children and the Family adopted in November 2008 prohibits all corporal punishment of children. However, they noted a lack of information regarding efforts to ensure implementation of the law. Global Initiative recommended undertaking measures to implement the law and eliminate corporal punishment in practice. 64. ALOS-LDH noted that, at the end of the elementary school cycle a guidance opinion was delivered by an evaluation commission. The process lacked transparency, however, and at no stage were the child’s wishes taken into account. As a result, access to the right to education, based on the principle of non-discrimination, was not always guaranteed. ALOS-LDH considered that the wishes of the child and those of its parents should at all times be the focus of attention and that the decision of the administrative tribunal should be applied without exception in order to guarantee equal access to the right to education. 66. JS1 added that although since 1999 Luxembourg had practised dependent persons’ insurance, it was limited to the private sector. Persons with disabilities were very often compelled to live in institutions, thereby forfeiting the benefits of a social life, a job and good education, while their rights to participation and active citizenship were not fully taken into account. Moreover, in institutions, the degree of self-determination of persons with disabilities was constantly being eroded. Accepted and Rejected Recommendations - To follow
