Call for action on unaccompanied minors
01/06/2010

A report from French Senator Isabelle Debré (UMP) to the Prime Minister highlights the urgency and necessity of more action towards foreign unaccompanied minors in France. The report calls for a more coherent response in the areas of protection, social services and regularisation of unaccompanied minors. Welcoming the report and recalling the EU Commission's action plan on unaccompanied minors recently published, NGO FTDA calls for more action from the French government, but also for a European response to the issue.

The right to health violated in Mayotte
01/03/2010

The High authority to fight discrimination and promote equality (HALDE) denounces discriminations and important breaches to the right to health in Mayotte. It concludes that claims of discriminations of undocumented migrants and their children, or of unaccompanied children, when accessing health care, are well-founded. It asks the authorities to put 'State medical aid' or an equivalent medical coverage in place in Mayotte and also, considering the obvious violation of provisions of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Children (UNCRC), that children of undocumented migrants and unaccompanied children can be directly affiliated to social security.
