Resolution ResDH (2003)86
concerning the judgments of the European Court of Human Rights (Friendly settlements)
of 22 June 2000
in 43 cases against Italy (see Appendix) relating to the excessive length of proceedings concerning civil rights and obligations before the Benevento labour court
(Adopted by the Committee of Ministers on 24 April 2003
at the 834th 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, as amended by Protocol No. 11 (hereinafter referred to as “the Convention”),
Having regard to the final judgments of the European Court of Human Rights in the 43 cases listed in the Appendix to this Resolution, which were delivered on 22 June 2000 and transmitted the same day to the Committee of Ministers under Article 46 of the Convention;
Recalling that these cases originated in applications (see Appendix) against Italy, lodged with the European Commission of Human Rights between 16 March 1994 and 18 April 1998 under former Article 25 of the Convention by 50 Italian nationals, and that the Court, seised of the cases under Article 5, paragraph 2, of Protocol No. 11, declared admissible the complaints related to the excessive length of certain proceedings concerning civil rights and obligations before the Benevento labour court;
Whereas in its judgments of 22 June 2000 concerning these cases the Court, after having taken formal note of friendly settlements reached by the government of the respondent state and the applicants, and having been satisfied that the settlements were based on respect for human rights as defined in the Convention or its Protocols, decided unanimously to strike these cases out of its list and took note of the parties’ undertaking not to request a re-hearing of the cases before the Grand Chamber;
Whereas under the above-mentioned friendly settlements it was agreed that the Italian Government would pay the applicants certain sums (see Appendix), within three months as from the notification of the judgments;
Recalling that Rule 44, paragraph 2, of the Rules of the Court provides that the striking out of a case shall be effected by means of a judgment which the President shall forward to the Committee of Ministers once it has become final in order to allow it to supervise, in accordance with Article 46, paragraph 2 of the Convention, the execution of any undertakings which may have been attached to the discontinuance or solution of the matter;
Having regard to the Rules adopted by the Committee of Ministers concerning the application of Article 46, paragraph 2, of the Convention;
Having satisfied itself that on 25 and 28 September 2000, a few days after the expiry of the time-limit set, the government of the respondent state had paid the applicants the sums provided for in the friendly settlement and having taken note of the fact that, in view of the minimal sums involved, the applicants waived their right to default interest, and that no other measure was required in the present case to comply with the Court’s judgment,
Recalling that, as regards the applicants’ complaints declared admissible in these cases, the Committee of Ministers is at present supervising the execution of several judgments of the Court and of a considerable number of Committee of Ministers' decisions under former Article 32 of the Convention, finding a violation of Article 6, paragraph 1, of the Convention on account of the excessive length of proceedings before the Italian labour courts;
Whereas, in this connection, the Italian authorities informed the Committee of Ministers that they were drafting and adopting new general measures in order to put an end to the serious problem of excessive length of proceedings, so as to prevent new violations similar to those already found in the above-mentioned cases (see Resolutions DH(97)336, DH(99)437 and ResDH (2000)135),
Declares, after having taken note of the information supplied by the Government of Italy, that the Committee of Ministers has exercised its functions under Article 46, paragraph 2, of the Convention with respect to the commitments subscribed to in these cases.
