concerning the judgments of the European Court of Human Rights delivered between 14 November 2000 and 15 February 2005 (final between 14 February 2001 and 15 May 2005 ) in the 27 cases against Turkey (see appendix) concerning the administration’s delay in payment of additional compensation for expropriation and the applicable rate of default interest
(Adopted by the Committee of Ministers on 14 December 2005 at the 948 th meeting of the Ministers’ Deputies)
The Committee of Ministers, under the terms of Article 46, paragraph 2, of the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms (hereinafter referred to as “the Convention”),
Having regard to the judgments of the European Court of Human Rights in the 27 cases details of which appear in the appendix to this resolution, delivered between 14 November 2000 and 15 February 2005 and transmitted to the Committee of Ministers once they had become final under Articles 44 and 46 of the Convention;
Recalling that the judgments of the Court became final between 14 February 2001 and 15 May 2005 and transmitted to the Committee of Ministers once they had become final under Articles 44 and 46 of the Convention;
Recalling that the cases originated in applications against Turkey , lodged with the European Commission and/or the European Court of Human Rights between 26 August 1991 and 21 February 2000 under former Article 25 and/or Article 34 of the Co n vention by several Turkish nationals, and that the Court declared admissible the complaints concerning the violation of the applicants’ right to respect for their property on account of the administration’s delay in paying additional compensation for expropriation and the difference between the applicable rate of default interest and the average rate of inflation ;
Whereas in its judgments delivered between 14 November 2000 and 15 February 2005 concerning these cases the Court unanimously:
- held that there had been violations of Article 1 of P rotocol No. 1 to the Convention;
- held that the government of the respondent state was to pay the applicants, within three months from the date at which the judgments became final, the amounts of just satisfaction (set out in the appendix to this resolution) to be converted into Turkish liras at the rate applicable on the date of settlement and that simple interest would be payable on the amounts ( annual rates are set out in the appendix to this resolution) from the expiry of the above-mentioned three months until settlement
- dismissed the remainder of the applicants’ claims for just satisfa c tion;
Having regard to the Rules adopted by the Committee of Ministers concerning the application of Article 46, paragraph 2, of the Convention;
Having invited the government of the respondent state to inform it of the mea s ures which had been taken in consequence of the judgments delivered between 14 November 2000 and 15 February 2005 , having regard to Turkey ’s obligation under Article 46, paragraph 1, of the Conve n tion to abide by it;
Whereas during the examination of the cases by the Committee of Ministers, the government of the respondent state recalled that measures had already been taken to avoid new violations of the same kind (see Resolutions ResDH(2001)70 and ResDH(2001)71 in the cases Aka and Akkuş against Turkey , respectively), in particular through the entry into force on 1 January 2000 of Law No. 4489, which brought the statutory rate of default interest into line with the annual rediscount rate applied by the Turkish Central Bank to short-term debts (the latter rate is fixed and permanently reviewed, taking into account particularly the country’s inflation rate) , and indicated that the Court’s judgments had been sent out to the authorities directly concerned;
Having satisfied itself that on the dates indicated in the appendix, the government of the respondent state had paid the a p plicants the sums provided in these judgments,
Declares, after having examined the information supplied by the Government of Turkey, that it has exe r cised its functions under Article 46, paragraph 2, of the Convention in these cases.
