CERD recommended that the Czech Republic take strong action, without further delay, to acknowledge the harm done to the victims and recognize the particular situation of Roma women in this regard and that it take all necessary steps to facilitate victims' access to justice and reparation. Similar recommendations were made by CEDAW.
