📅 23 Oktober 2018 📍 Frankrijk

It found that the blanket criminal ban disproportionately interfered with their rights and sought remedies and review. The women used an international complaints mechanism after domestic prosecutions. The committee’s findings differed from the European court’s earlier approach, but did not themselves repeal French legislation.
