KEY OBSERVATION
ODIHR recognizes Luxembourg's efforts to report hate crimes to ODIHR and to improve hate crime legislation to ensure that bias motivations can be effectively acknowledged and appropriate penalties can be imposed on perpetrators. However, based on the available information, it observes that the law enforcement agencies of Luxembourg have not recorded the bias motivations of hate crimes, while Luxembourg's hate crime recording and statistics do not sufficiently distinguish hate crimes from other crimes. ODIHR further observes that Luxembourg would benefit from raising awareness among and building the capacity of criminal justice officials to address hate crime.
ODIHR recalls that in Ministerial Council Decision 9/09, OSCE participating States agreed to a definition of hate crime shared by all OSCE participating States, and committed to collecting reliable data and statistics on hate crimes. Participating States also committed to promptly investigating hate crimes and ensuring that the motives of those convicted of such crimes are acknowledged. To that end, the law enforcement must, as a first step, record the bias motivation of hate crimes. Participating States have further committed to introducing or further developing professional training and capacity-building activities for law enforcement, prosecution and judicial officials dealing with hate crimes.
ODIHR stands ready to support Luxembourg in meeting the relevant commitments through its comprehensive resources and tailored assistance in the area of hate crime recording and data collection, as well as through its comprehensive resources and tailored capacity-building assistance for the police, prosecution, and judiciary.
