13 Adequate medical and psychological treatment to the victims (eleventh operative paragraph of the Judgment) 25. That in what refers to the obligation to provide psychological treatment to all the next of kin of the victims that so require it, as of the notification of the Judgment to those already identified, and as of the moment of their identification in the case of those who have not yet been identified, and for as long as it is necessary, the State informed that it had agreed with the representatives that the first step toward compliance of this reparation measure was to make a diagnosis of the people who would benefit from the measure carried out by private health institutions. Later, the State informed that it had met with the representatives of the victims and their next of kin and that they had presented it with a list of different specialized institutions that could be contacted in order to request a proposal. The representatives also provided information regarding 454 people who wished to receive medical attention. However, the State added that it had not been able to contract that service because the entities they had asked for offers had difficulties to prepare a specific proposal and that “the Ministry of Social Protection was awaiting some additional offers from institutions suggested by the representatives, in order to make the best deal possible.” 26. That the State later mentioned that in December 2007 it had reached an agreement between the Ministry of Social Protection and the United Nations Development Program (UNDP), within the framework of which the Reconciliation and Development Program (Networks) was being developed. One of the aspects of the mentioned agreement would be to collaborate with technical and financial assistance in the comprehensive attention of the victims from a psychosocial perspective. The State informed that this agreement was also focused on the attention of the victims mentioned in the judgments of the Court in the cases of Gutiérrez Soler, Escué Zapata, 19 Tradesmen, Mapiripán, Pueblo Bello, Ituango, and La Rochela. The State informed, that within the framework of the agreement, it had made progress in activities regarding the design and implementation of the management structure, of identification of the offer of services, and of elaboration of a work plan for the assessment and medical and psychological diagnosis of the next of kin of the victims related to the mentioned judgments of the Court. The State also informed that it held a meeting with the representatives, in which it informed them of the procedure adopted and it agreed with them that they would respond with their observations and comments in writing within a reasonable term. Reference was also made to another meeting held between the UNDP and the representatives within the framework of the “programmatic and follow-up meetings with the petitioners,” in which reports on the progress of compliance were presented and “specific aspects included in the respective work plans” were considered. At the hearing, the State mentioned it hired the “Vinculus Foundation” for the attention of the beneficiaries, and by the end of last year said Foundation informed it had diagnosed 120 people; that after the diagnosis phase “that should be concluded by January 31, 2009,” there would be a treatment phase. The State asked the Court to consider that this reparation measure, although late, is being carried out. 27. That the representatives initially stated that one of the factors that has delayed the implementation of this measure was the unorganized action of the Ministry of Social Protection, which issued a summons without terms of reference and with little clarity regarding its object. Therefore, no entity had presented itself to carry out the medical and psychological diagnosis of the next of kin of the victims. They also informed of a meeting held in March 2008, during which they agreed to introduce modifications to the terms of reference and that the matter of the specific compliance
