Amnesty International is taking up the case with regards to EU complacency in ethnic discrimination in Europe.
From Amnesty International September 2013
"The widespread and continued segregation of Roma school children in Slovakia has wider implications as the authorities of the country are also breaching international human rights law, and European Union (EU) anti-discrimination legislation. The European Commission has the responsibility, the obligation and the tools to ensure member states comply with EU law including through infringement proceedings."
"It is time the Commission started taking stronger stance and action vis-a-vis countries, such as Slovakia, where the government is failing to end widespread and systemic segregation that has no place in 21st century Europe and is in complete contradiction with EU law and the principles of respect for human rights and fundamental freedoms that the EU prides to be founded on."

As you can see, Brian, it's not me who has to go to Slovakia and "sort the problem out myself", as you suggested, but rather Amnesty International is on the case, as the EU is knowingly permitting a regime of systematic discrimination against citizens of European countries on account of their ethnicity.
