Women and their right to adequate housing 2012, para. 64
- Paragraph text
- States should also amend or repeal domestic legislation related to family and marriage which discriminates against women, so as to ensure that women and men have equal powers in all matters related to housing and land. Seemingly gender-neutral concepts or standards which discriminate against women in practice - such as the application of the "head of the household" concept - should similarly be rescinded.
