The Commission published, in October 2003, independent research on legislation in candidate countries regarding discrimination on the grounds of racial or ethnic origin, religion or belief, disability, age and sexual orientation. The study, 'Equality, Diversity and Enlargement', shows that there has been progress, but there is still work to be done if the candidates are to comply with the Directives on putting European Union rules on anti-discrimination into national law by 1 May 2004.
