The Court of Appeal of Ancona ordered to repeal a resolution of the Municipality of Civitanova Marche aimed at banning camping in the municipal area. Following this resolution, a woman of Roma origin and her daughters had been obliged to abandon the caravans where they lived. Through interpreting Article 43 and 44 of legislative decree No. 286/1998, “Consolidated Act on Immigration and the Status of Aliens”, the Court ruled that the content of the resolution amounted to indirect discrimination. As a matter of fact, it was formally addressed to all residents but had affected, in the practice, only Roma community members.
