<s>[INST] The next text is a question of a member of the European parliament:"There are increasing concerns about the rise of homophobia and the persecution of homosexual citizens across the EU, particularly within Poland where it is claimed that thousands of the Polish gay community have been forced to leave the country because of the current political situation. For example, it has recently been reported that the Polish Health Ministry is planning to identify how many people in Poland are gay and devise a set of behavioural guides to assist parents and teachers so that they can recognise any warning signs of potential ‘gay behaviour’. This adds to a growing number of other incidents involving the Polish Government.  In light of both Article13 of the Treaty on the European Union, which confers on the Community the competence to ‘take appropriate action to combat discrimination based on sex, racial or ethnic origin, religion or belief, disability, age or sexual orientation’ and the anti-discrimination package of legislation adopted in 2000, which prohibits discrimination, harassment and victimisation in employment and training on the grounds of religion or belief, disability, age or sexual orientation, can the Commission detail what steps it is taking in the fight against discrimination based on sexual orientation and to ensure that EU anti-discrimination laws are not being breached?  Can the Commission state what action it is taking to monitor the rise of homophobia across the EU and within certain Member States in particular?"
