This number included all nomadic Roma and part <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> <str<strong>on</strong>g>the</str<strong>on</strong>g> sedentary Roma, all being c<strong>on</strong>sidered to be “problems” because <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> <str<strong>on</strong>g>the</str<strong>on</strong>g>ir way <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> life, criminal c<strong>on</strong>victi<strong>on</strong>s <strong>on</strong> lack <str<strong>on</strong>g>of</str<strong>on</strong>g> means to subsist.
