Article 234-2 of the Civil Code, as amended by the "Loi n° 1.435 du 8 novembre 2016 relative à la lutte contre la criminalité technologique", states: In July 2010, a Monegasque court convicted a man to 5 days in jail and ordered him to pay a fine of 5,000 euros, after he used openly homophobic rhetoric against a gay man. In July 2011, the Monegasque Parliament adopted an anti-discrimination and anti-harassment bill, going further than the 2005 law. Main articles concerning LGBT people were: article 1 which outlawed discrimination based on, among other categories, "sex, true or perceived sexual orientation, civil status [and] family situation", article 3 which applied this prohibition to the workplace in both the public and private sector, contacts with administrations, access and delivery to goods and services (accommodation was not namely cited but included in this category), family relationships, access to recreational, cultural or public locations or events, among other situations, article 8 which precised that discrimination at work may not occur concerning access or working conditions, remuneration conditions, disciplinary measures and firing conditions, article 10 which provided for certain justified exceptions, if conditions about sex and religious or philosophical beliefs were essentially inherent (for instance, churches and other religious communities could still fire or refuse to hire a person based on the Article 1 categories), article 40 which provided for penalties in case of defamation or non-public insult connected to true or purported sexual orientation, among other reasons, and article 44 which provided for the creation of a school program to sensibilize against racism and all Article 1 discriminations, every year of primary and secondary school cycles. The Council of Government did not approve the bill, and proposed a new one instead on 18 December 2012. It did not include the provisions in regards to discrimination based on sexual orientation. "Law n° 1.478 of 12 November 2019 concerning modifications of certain provisions relating to penalties" () amended three articles of the Monegasque Civil Code to include the term "sexual orientation", namely article 238-1 which punishes violent actions committed based on sexual orientation, which did not result in the victim's "illness or total incapacity to work", with imprisonment varying between six months to one year, article 239 which provides for ten years' imprisonment for someone who attacked their partner (or any person living under the same roof) based on sexual orientation, and article 421 which provides for penalties of five years' probation or other measures provided for at article 29-4 for those who, without reason, attacked a person, or a group of people, based on their sexual orientation (among other categories).
