LOUCAIDES                Mr.   H.C. KRÜGER, Secretary to the Commission           Having regard to Article 25 of the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms;           Having regard to the application introduced on 31 October 1985 by Torbjörn Ackling and 205 other fishing rights owners against Sweden and registered on 27 July 1987 under file No. 13115/87;           Having regard to the report provided for in Rule 40 of the Rules of Procedure of the Commission;           Having deliberated;           Decides as follows:   THE FACTS           The facts of the case, as they appear from the applicants' submissions, may be summarised as follows:           The applicants are set out in the Annex.   Before the Commission they are all represented by Mr.   Jan Axelsson, a lawyer practising in Stockholm.           The applicants own property which includes fishing waters in the Baltic Sea.   As from 1 May 1985 they were deprived of their exclusive right to fish in their waters as a result of new legislation which was passed by Parliament.   Pursuant to this legislation, everyone has the right to fish with hand-held equipment in the applicants' waters.   COMPLAINTS   1.       The applicants alleged a violation of Article 1 of Protocol No. 1 to the Convention on the ground that they had been deprived of their exclusive right to fish in their waters.   2.       The applicants also alleged a violation of Article 14 of the Convention in conjunction with Article 1 of Protocol No. 1 as a result of the discriminatory rules on compensation.   3.       The applicants alleged a breach of Article 6 of the Convention since they had no possibility of submitting their claims in relation to the alleged unlawful interference with their civil rights to a tribunal meeting the requirements of the Convention.   4.       The applicants finally alleged a violation of Article 13 of the Convention.   PROCEEDINGS BEFORE THE COMMISSION           The application was introduced on 31 October 1985 and registered on 27 July 1987.           On 6 October 1987 the Commission decided that notice of the application should be given to the respondent Government, but that the further examination of the application should be adjourned pending the outcome of Applications Nos. 11763/85-11767/85, 11830/85 and 12091/86, Banér and others v. Sweden.           On 9 March 1989 the Commission declared the last mentioned applications inadmissible.           On 17 January 1990 the applicants informed the Commission that they wished to withdraw the application.   REASONS FOR THE DECISION           The Commission finds that the applicants do not intend to pursue their application before the Commission within the meaning of Article 30 para. 1 (a) (Art. 30-1-a) of the Convention.           It further considers that respect for Human Rights as defined in the Convention does not require that the Commission continue its examination of the application.           It follows that the application shall be struck off the list of cases pursuant to Article 30 para. 1 (Art. 30-1) of the Convention.           For these reasons, the Commission           DECIDES TO STRIKE THE APPLICATION OFF ITS LIST OF CASES       Secretary to the Commission                President of the Commission                  (H.C.
