The first report by a committee of anti-discrimination experts was to be submitted to the Belgian Parliament...five years ago. This report is to be the basis of a reform of existing laws aimed at tackling certain forms of discrimination (based on age, health status, language, etc.) and inequalities that exist between men and women.
