The complaint was registered on 19 March 2025. It relates to Articles 11§§1 and 3 (the right to protection of health), 14§§1 and 2 (the right to benefit from social welfare services) and 16 (the right of the family to social, legal and economic protection) of the 1961 Charter read alone as well as to Articles 11§1, 11§3 and 16 read in the light of the non-discrimination clause established in the preamble to the 1961 Charter. Autism Europe alleges that the Czech Republic has failed in its duty to provide people with disabilities, including adults and especially children with autism, intellectual disabilities and challenging behaviours, with affordable and adequate community-based social care services and has neglected to provide sufficient support to informal carers, in violation of the aforementioned provisions of the 1961 Charter.
