may be necessary to promptly and effectively comply with this reparation measure.
Accordingly, the Court believes that paragraph six of the Judgment is pending
compliance and requests the State to continue to report in detail, timely and
completely on the progress made with the processing of the bills and the measures
taken, or those that will be taken, so that they be adopted, as well as the
effectiveness of the aforementioned legislative amendments for the compliance with
this reparation measure. Chile also must disclose whether it has adopted any
administrative action or otherwise aimed at fulfilling the guarantee of non-repetition.
III. In relation to the obligation to reimburse the costs and expenses
(operative paragraph seven and paragraph 164 of the Judgment)
23.
The State reported that on May 30, 2007 it paid the amount awarded by the
Court as costs and expenses, depositing said amount "in the Savings Account of the
State Bank, whose holder is Ms. Elvira del Rosario Gómez Olivares."
24.
The representative of the victim and his family did not make observations on
any of the State reports.
25.
The Committee noted "with satisfaction the fulfillment of what was ordered by
the Court in operative paragraph seven of the [J]udgment."
26.
The State reported that it had complied fully with this point in the report
submitted on June 29, 2007, which was duly transmitted by the Court to the
representative, who, despite repeated requests by the President of the Tribunal to
submit observations on this report and other reports (supra Having Seen 4 and 10),
did not make any observations. Taking into account the observations of the
Commission, as well as the fact that more than three years have passed since the
State reported that it had reimbursed all costs and expenses, without the
representative submitting any comments or objections thereto, the Court concludes
that Chile has complied with the provisions of operative paragraph seven of the
Judgment within the one year timeframe set forth in the Judgment.
IV. In relation to the obligation to publish the Judgment in the Official
Gazette and another newspaper that is widely circulated nationally
(operative paragraph eight and paragraph 162 of the Judgment)
27.
In its first report, the State manifested that it made such publication "in the
Official Gazette of Chile and in the La Nación newspaper on May 14 and 13, [2007]
respectively," and provided copies of these publications.
28.
The representative of the victim and his family did not make observations on
any of the State reports.
29.
The Committee noted "with satisfaction the fulfillment of what was ordered by
the Court in operative paragraph eight of the [J]udgment."
30.
In its first report on June 5, 2007, the State reported that it had complied fully
with this point. Said report was duly transmitted by the Court to the representative,
who, despite repeated requests by the President of the Tribunal to submit
observations on this report and other reports (supra Having Seen 4 and 10), did not
make any observations. Taking into account the proof of publication in the Official
Gazette of Chile —and in a newspaper that is widely circulated nationally— provided
by the State, the Commission's observations, as well as the fact that more than
three years have passed since the State reported the execution of said publications
without the representative making any comments or objections thereto, the Court
