A/HRC/15/60 children and minorities; to eliminate all forms of discrimination against the Roma community, migrants and religious minorities; and to take measures against perpetrators of racially motivated acts against these groups. 375. The International Federation of the Action of Christians for the Abolition of Torture welcomed the quality and level of the Spanish delegation during the review. It regretted, however, that Spain had rejected 18 recommendations during the Working Group session, without holding consultations with civil society and concerned ministries. It welcomed the written submission of Spain’s position on the pending recommendations, the acceptance of recommendations calling for the prevention of torture and ill-treatment, and the measures taken to recognize the competence of the Committee on Enforced Disappearances. It regretted, however, that Spain had rejected the recommendation asking it to reconsider the use of secret detention, which could facilitate torture and constitute a case of ill-treatment. 376. The European Centre for Law and Justice expressed its disappointment that the objection to a compulsory curriculum, which it considered a core issue, had not been adequately addressed in the Working Group report. It recalled that over 50,000 families objected to the compulsory curriculum in public and private schools. A new subject called “education for citizenship” included themes that would negatively influence the conscience and values of children and had thus been rejected by thousands of parents. The Centre also reported that, in 2009, the Supreme Court had ruled against parents objecting to this aspect of the curriculum, and that the constitutional court had dismissed their claims. It concluded that this was a major issue of freedom of expression to be urgently addressed by Spain. 4. Concluding remarks of the State under review 377.
