Yes. On the 20th October 2008 Aberdeen Employment Judge Hosie delivered the critical and long overdue ruling in the case of MacLennan v Gypsy Traveller Education and Information Project (S/132721/07) Summing up he said "Having satisfied ourselves, therefore, that the two main characteristics set out by Lord Fraser in Mandla v Dowell & Lee (1983) 1 All ER 1062, House of Lords, were satisfied and that the other non-essential characteristics were satisfied in varying degrees, we arrived at the view that Scottish Gypsy Travellers have 'ethnic origins', with reference in particular to Section 3 (1) of the 1976 (Race Relations) Act and that they, therefore, enjoy the protection of the Act"

How are the ethnic groups different from each other?
A minority group is a subordinate group whose members have significantly less control or power over their own lives than the members of a dominant or majority group have over theirs. The number of people in a group does not necessarily determine its status as a social minority. Sociologist define a minority group with the concern of the economic and political power, or powerlessness, of that group. An example of a minority group in America are homosexuals, or Muslims. Neither group is properly represented politically, or economically, and both groups have issues with certain rights such as the right to marry in some states for homosexuals. "Ethnic" which derives from the Greek word "ethnos" pertains to culture. An ethnic group is a cultural group. They are distinguished by language, customs, cuisine, modes of dress and so on. In most countries there is one dominant majority culture, and members of that group are an ethnic group to be sure. However, it is also common to find countries where there are minority ethnic groups, to whom the majority ethnic group often shows great hostility. Also in places like America, ethnic groups can be composed of several different minority groups. In our "melting pot" we have Black Americans, Mexican Americans, Asian Americans, and so on that all compose of one big ethnic group.
