training program. It also indicated that “the organization of annual seminars and the
distribution of manuals of procedures had been planned in order to ensure that the conduct
[of public servants] was adapted to Inter-American and constitutional law.”
16.
That, in a communication of April 12, 2007, the representatives indicated that, in
previous meetings with the State, it had been agreed to set up an inter-institutional
committee and establish the educational and training program by means of a ministerial
decree, for which the representatives had prepared and submitted a draft document. In
their observations of November 17, 2008, the representatives indicated that, in July that
year, they had held a meeting with officials of the Ecuadorean Ministry of Justice, who had
informed them of a project to provide human rights training to public officials that would be
implemented towards the end of 2008. However, the representatives stated that they had
received no further information in this regard.
17.
That, in its observations of May 1, 2007, the Commission expressed its concern
owing to the delay in the implementation of the human rights training program for public
officials. Subsequently, in observations of September 13, 2007, and December 29, 2008,
the Commission noted that the reports on compliance with the judgment did not include any
information concerning the thirteenth operative paragraph (supra Having Seen paragraph
1).
18.
That, based on the information provided by the parties, the Court observes that
although the State has taken some steps to implement the measures ordered by the Court
concerning the establishment of a training program and the creation of the interinstitutional committee, it also finds that it has insufficient information to assess the current
status of compliance with the thirteenth operative paragraph of the judgment.
Consequently, the Court finds that the State must submit updated and detailed information
on the steps taken in this regard.

been seized or the payment of €82,850.00 (eighty-two thousand eight hundred and fifty
euros) in compensation for the seizure of Mr. Tibi’s property, in the attachments to the
