The Committee of Ministers, under the terms of Article 32 (art. 32) of the

Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms

(hereinafter referred to as "the Convention"),

Having regard to the report drawn up on 18 October 1994 by the European

Commission of Human Rights in accordance with Article 31 (art. 31) of the

Convention relating to the application lodged on 16 October 1991 by Mr Carlo

Boschetti against Italy

(Application No. 19732/92);

Whereas on 8 December 1994 the Commission transmitted the said report to

the Committee of Ministers and whereas the period of three months provided for

in Article 32, paragraph 1 (art. 32-1), of the Convention has elapsed without

the case having been brought before the European Court of Human Rights in

pursuance of Article 48 (art. 48) of the Convention;

Whereas in his application, declared admissible by the Commission on 17

May 1994, the applicant complained of the excessive length of certain civil

proceedings before the Court of Audit;

Whereas in its report the Commission expressed, unanimously, the opinion

that there had been a violation of Article 6, paragraph 1 (art. 6-1), of the

Convention;

Whereas, at the 536th meeting of the Ministers' Deputies held on 5 May

1995, the Committee of Ministers, agreeing with the opinion expressed by the

Commission, held, having voted in accordance with the provisions of Article 32,

paragraph 1

(art. 32-1), of the Convention, that there had been in this case a violation of

Article 6, paragraph 1 (art. 6-1), of the Convention;

Whereas the Committee of Ministers examined the proposals made by the

Commission when transmitting its report as regards just satisfaction to be

awarded to the applicant, proposals supplemented by a letter of the President of

the Commission dated 13 April 1995;

Whereas, at the 539th meeting of the Deputies held on

7 June 1995, the Committee of Ministers decided, in accordance with Article 32,

paragraph 2 (art. 32-2), of the Convention, that the Government of Italy was to

pay the applicant as just satisfaction, within three months, 4 000 000 Italian

lire in respect of

non-pecuniary damage;

Whereas the Committee of Ministers invited the Government of Italy to

inform it of the measures taken following its decisions of 5 May 1995 and 7 June

1995, having regard to Italy's obligation under Article 32, paragraph 4 (art.

32-4), of the Convention to abide by them;

Whereas the Government of Italy recalled that measures had already been

taken to prevent the repetition of the violation found in this case through the

reform of the organisation of the Court of Audit, (see, notably, Resolution DH

(94) 25 in the case of Giancarlo Lombardo);

Whereas the Committee of Ministers satisfied itself that

on 29 April 1996 the Government of Italy paid the applicant the sum of 4 000 000

Italian lire as just satisfaction,

Declares, having taken note of the measures taken by the Government of

Italy, that it has exercised its functions under Article 32 (art. 32) of the

Convention in this case;

Authorises the publication of the report adopted by the Commission in this

case.
