Untill 2010 no institution or body has been officially designated to be the specialised body as required by Directive 2000/43. There was no single “specialised body” which would be able to fulfil all three functions in the sense of Article 13.2 of the Racial Equality Directive.
The 2010 Act on Equal Treatment finallydesignates as an equality body the existing Ombudsperson office (Commissioner for Civil Rights Protection – Rzecznik Praw Obywatelskich).
