title: Regional Law No. 51, 18 November 1987.
abstract: This Law establishes a center for the realization of equality and equal opportunity between men and women. The center is to promote investigations and research on the condition of women, promote institutional initiatives, and plan projects and give opinions in order to verify whether existing laws on equality are being applied; to promote the access of women to jobs and increase the opportunities for the instruction and professional advancement for women, and to encourage the real possibility of the insertion of women in social life, while supporting an adequate social services policy. Commissions having the same objective were established in 1987 in Calabria (Regional Law No. 4, 26 January 1987; Gazzetta Ufficiale, 3rd Special Series. No. 14, 4 April 1987, p. 31); Tuscany (Regional Law No. 14, 23 February 1987; Gazzetta Ufficiale, 3rd Special Series, No. 18, 9 May 1987, pp. 28-29); and Piemonte (Regional Law No. 46, 12 November 1986; Gazzetta Ufficiale, 3rd Special Series, No. 9, 28 February 1987, pp. 26).
