„Ovid Densușianu”, „Carol I”, „Mareșal Constantin Prezan”, while deciding against the naming of “Bridge Saint Ladislau”, showing that the bridge “connects Union Square with Ferdinand Square and has to create the idea of an union”. Saint Ladislau was the King of Hungary be- tween 1077 and 1095, sanctified by the Catholic Church in 1192, and his tomb was relocated to Oradea after 1113.

Therefore, the Steering board Resolution no. 58 of 20.01.2016 stated that, pursuant to the provisions of Art. 2 par. 1 of the Government Ordinance no. 137/2000, the refusal of the name “Bridge Saint Ladislau” represents a fact of discrimination because the bridge “connects Union Square with Ferdinand Square and has to create the idea of a union” while other bridge names were approved (“Dacia”, “Decebal”, “Ovid Densusianu”, “Carol I”, “Marshall Constantin Prezan”) as it states an ethnic difference or exclusion resulting in hindering the exercise of the right to personal dignity. The defendants were requested to publish a summary of the NCCD Solution in local media, pursuant to the provisions of Art. 26 par. 2 of the Government Ordinance no. 137/2000/

3. The capacity as complainant. Access to medical care. Direct discrimination. Victimization The complainants, B.L.I. and M.M.R., consider they have been discriminated by the fact of not being reimbursed the dental service expenses and by being excluded from health services lists of the medical unit, as well as by being victimized for having pressing criminal charges.

The Steering board Resolution no. 68/27.01.2016 noted that complainants demanded the reimbursement of dental service expenses and, after taking the matter to court, asking for remedies, they have been excluded from the list of medical care services of the medical in- stitution subordinated to the ministry against which the charges were pressed. Therefore the Steering board ruled that the facts represent discrimination pursuant to the provisions of Art. 2 par. 1 corroborated with Art. 10 letter b) of the Government Ordinance no. 137/2000, as they are an exclusion based on the capacity as complainant and on the basis of the belief criterion, resulting in the restraint of use and fair exercise of the right to access health services, a fact that is punished by a contraventional fine of Lei 2000, pursuant to the provisions of Art. 26 par. 1 corroborated with Art. 10 letter b of the Government Ordinance no. 137/2000.

4. Language. Access to Public information The petitioner association sees as discrimination the fact that the Mayor of Cristuru Secuiesc issued a Hungarian-only publication („Keresztúri Kisváros”). The editor’s name is written right under the newspaper title: „Székelykeresztúr Város Önkormányzatának ingyenes, havi kiadványa”, along with the associated Web site keresztur.ro.

In what concerns the right to public information access, the Steering board notes that the defendant created a difference between Hungarian-speaking people, who - aside from other means of access (petition to the defendant, Internet search) - are also offered a free monthly publication, and non-Hungarian-speaking people who are therefore not provided access to this means of information.
