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 by the European Commission of
Human Rights in accordance with Article 31 (art. 31) of the Convention
relating to the application lodged on 12 January 1987 by
Mr Erik Karlsson against Sweden (No. 12782/87);
Whereas on 5 May 1989 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
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 the applicant complained that he had no
possibility of having a dispute over the refusal to grant him a
permit to acquire certain agricultural property examined by a tribunal
satisfying the requirements of Article 6, paragraph 1 (art. 6-1), of the
Convention;
Whereas the Commission declared the application admissible on
12 October 1988 and in its report adopted on 12 April 1989 unanimously

paragraph 1 (art. 6-1), of the Convention;
Agreeing with the opinion expressed by the Commission in accordance
with Article 31, paragraph 1 (art. 31-1), of the Convention;
Whereas, during the examination of the case, the Committee of
Ministers was informed by the Government of Sweden that the Act of
21 April 1988 on judicial review of certain administrative decisions,
which provides for a possibility of review by the Supreme
Administrative Court, will be applicable to the situation complained
of in this case;
Having examined the proposals made by the Commission concerning just
satisfaction for the applicant,
Decides, having voted in accordance with the provisions of
Article 32, paragraph 1 (art. 32-1), of the Convention, that there has
been a violation of Article 6, paragraph 1 (art. 6-1), of the
Convention in this case;
Takes note of the information provided by the Government of Sweden;
Recommends, under Rule 5 of the Rules adopted by the Committee of

10 000 Swedish crowns in respect of non-pecuniary damage and the
sum of 2 500 Swedish crowns for costs and expenses;
Decides, therefore, that no further action is called for in this
