Government - National Parliamentary committees and purposeful voting Return to the National Government list Delivering governance Closed parliamentary committees Quite often issues of concern to the Roma are decided by closed parliamentary committees with no consultation of the Roma. The committee recommendations usually go through on a nod. The annual allocations of normative funding, used by central government to bribe local authorities to enforce segregated educational denial on Roma children, is a good example. This voting has nothing to do with "finance" as such but it more concerned with securing segregation in largely rural areas on the grounds of ethnicity. The vote is racist and contravenes European Law. The Czech government has twice voted against stopping this funding for the "Special Schools" in open contravention of European Law. All of this is run as a low profile and discreet process and, as a result, is hardly reported upon in the media and indeed by so-calleed concerned NGOs. Financial corruption There have been many allegations as to why parliamentarians are so enthusiastic in their support of a system of bribes to enforce segregated educational denial. A bribe it is, for a block of standard normative funding is separated into a budget line expressly for the purpose of payment on conditon that mainly rural local governments enforce segregated educational denial on Roma children. But these funds are not spent on these children. Some of the allegations explaining this financial procedural corruption include a direct financial interest on the part of parliamentarians from "constituencies" with large Roma populations. Although, naturally, politicians have protested at such propositions they have been unable to explain where the funds go. For example up to 10% can be explained in terms of funding the minders for these children. The rest remains a mystery. The way the funds are alleged to leak out of the system is over-priced local procurement contracts for works and services undertaken by companies friendly to either the MP and/or his or her Party. Neo-Nazi resurgence Besides the abuse of financial procedures to engineer the payment of a perverse and defacto bribe to local authorities, there is the substantive outcome of this policy for all to see. This is a complete reconstitution of a systems based upon the Third Reich Nazi Special Schools used for Jewish and Roma children. The Nazi system, like that re-established since 1989 by the governments of the Czech Republic, Hungary and Slovakia, was designed to segregate these children, not educate them and to make money for those who "managed" them; always Party loyalists. So the other explanation for this behaviour is a resurgence of policies which reflect neo-Nazi preferences and mindsets of national and local politicians and expressed in this form of an unashamed overt implementation of neo-Nazi policies.
