font-size:6.67pt; vertical-align:super; color:#0069d6 } Interim Resolution CM/ResDH(2013)115 Execution of the pilot judgment Manushaqe Puto and 11 other judgments of the European Court of Human Rights concerning the failure to enforce final domestic judicial and administrative decisions relating to the right of the applicants to restitution or compensation (whether pecuniary or in kind) for property nationalised during the communist regime in Albania (see Appendix)   (Adopted by the Committee of Ministers on 6 June 2013 at the 1172nd 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 “the Convention”);   Recalling that this group of cases concerns the longstanding structural problem of the non-enforcement of final domestic judicial and administrative decisions relating to the right of the applicants to restitution or compensation (whether pecuniary or in kind) for property nationalised during the communist regime (violations of Article 6 § 1 and Article 1 of Protocol n o 1), as well as the lack of an effective remedy in that regard (violation of Article 13);   Recalling that in view of the scale and persistent ineffectiveness of the current compensation mechanism, the European Court of Human Rights delivered a pilot judgment in the case of Manushaqe Puto and others, in which it set an 18 month deadline – namely until the 17 June 2014 – for the Albanian Government to establish an effective compensation mechanism;   Underlining the support given by the Committee to the Albanian authorities, since it has been supervising the execution of this group of cases, in the identification of measures to adopt urgently in order to resolve this longstanding structural problem;   Noting with great concern that to date, only one of the measures identified has been finalised, namely the land valuation map, and that no action plan demonstrating the ability of the Albanian authorities to establish an effective compensation mechanism within the deadline set by the Court, has been submitted;   Recalling that the non-enforcement of domestic final decisions represents a grave danger to the rule of law, risks undermining the confidence of citizens in the judicial system, and as such calls into question the credibility of the State;   Underlining the obligation of every State, under the terms of Article 46, paragraph 1, of the Convention to abide by the final judgments of the European Court in any case to which they are a party,   CALLS ON the Albanian authorities, at the highest level, to give the highest priority to the preparation of an action plan capable of establishing, within the deadline set by the European Court, an effective compensation mechanism, which takes account of the measures already identified with the support of the Committee.   Appendix List of cases concerned   Application Case Judgment of Final on 604/07+ MANUSHAQE PUTO AND OTHERS 31/07/2012 17/12/2012 DRIZA GROUP Application Case Judgment of Final on 33771/02 DRIZA 13/11/2007 02/06/2008 7352/03 BESHIRI AND OTHERS 22/08/2006 12/02/2007 6397/04 BUSHATI AND OTHERS 08/12/2009 14/02/2012 08/03/2010 14/05/2012 10810/05 CAUSH DRIZA 15/03/2011 15/06/2011 49106/06 DELVINA 08/03/2011 08/06/2011 16530/06 ELTARI 08/03/2011 15/09/2011 10508/02 GJONBOCARI AND OTHERS 23/10/2007 31/03/2008 45264/04 HAMZARAJ No.1 03/02/2009 06/07/2009 12306/04 NURI 03/02/2009 06/07/2009 38222/02 RAMADHI AND 5 OTHERS 13/11/2007 02/06/2008 35720/04+ VRIONI AND OTHERS [1] 29/09/2009 07/12/2010 29/12/2009 11/04/2011   [1] This application was lodged against Italy and Albania but the European Court found no violation in respect of Italy.
