no. 137/2000, as republished. In what concerns non-criminal sanctions, the Steering board imposed a contraventional fine of Lei 1000 on the defendant together with the obligation of publishing a summary of the present decision in the media pursuant to the provisions of Art. 26 par. 2 of the Government Ordinance no. 137/2000.

8. Disability (autism and hyperactivity disorder) Right to education The complainant’s petition refers to the discrimination, from the part of the school tutor, against her son who was diagnosed with autism and hyperactivity disorder. The complainant sees as discriminating the fact that the tutor has a different attitude towards her son, by the fact of considering that the latter needed be enrolled in a special school and not follow the classes of a regular school.

The Steering board retained the points of view of the defendant parties by which the parties acknowledge the existence of issues in the classroom with respect to the complainant’s son and his adaptation to that environment; the parties seem to suggest that the child’s caretaker is the sole responsible. The Steering board considers that the refusal to adapt the school to the disabled child’s needs as well as the methods used by the defendant parties in view of integrating the complainant’s son effected in restraining his rights and represent a fact of harassment pursuant to the provisions of Art. 2 par. 5 of the GO 137/2000 on the prevention and punishment of all facts of discrimination, as republished. The Steering board appreciates that the alleged differentiated treatment was based on the diagnosis of the complainant’s son, that of autism and hyperactivity disorder.

The Steering board Resolution no. 455 of 06.07.2016 states that the claimed facts represent a differentiated and discriminatory treatment pursuant to the provisions of Art. 2 par. 5 of the GO 137/2000 on the prevention and punishment of all facts of discrimination, as repub- lished. In what concerns the non-criminal sanctions, the Steering board ruled on imposing a non-criminal warning against the defendant parties.

9. Ethnic origin (Roma people). The right to personal dignity The petitioner reports the publication of discriminating advertisements on www.publi24. ro. The petitioner sees it as discriminating the fact that site administrators did not take any appropriate measures to eliminate such ads.

The Steering board notes that the ads were publicly posted on the defendant’s Web site and prejudices the right to personal dignity while creating a hostile, degrading and humiliating environment for the gypsy ethnic group. The provisions of Art. 15 of the Government Ordi- nance no. 137/2000 also apply.

The Steering board Resolution no. 544 of 31.08.2016 states that the claimed facts represent facts of discrimination pursuant to the provisions of Art. 2 par. 1, 2 and Art. 15 of the GO 137/2000 on the prevention and punishment of all facts of discrimination, as republished. The Steering board ruled on imposing a contraventional fine of Lei 14,000 on the defendant SC Russmedia Press SRL, that is Lei 2,000 for each discriminatory ad, pursuant to the pro- visions of Art. 26 par. 1 of the Government Ordinance no. 137/2000.
