154. The Respondent State did not specifically address this prayer. *** 155. The justification provided earlier in respect of the Court’s decision to order publication of the judgment is equally applicable in respect of implementation and reporting. The Court notes that reporting on implementation of its judgments has now been established in its practices. Specifically in relation to the time within which to report, the Court notes that in its previous judgments the Respondent State was directed to implement the decisions within one year of issuance of the same.80 In subsequent judgments, the Court has granted the Respondent State a period of six months to implement the same order.81 156. The Court holds, therefore, that the Respondent State is under an obligation to report on the steps taken to implement this judgment within six months from the date of notification of this judgment. IX. COSTS 157. Although the Applicant does not make an express prayer in respect of costs, he prays the Court to grant any other orders it shall deem necessary. 158. The Respondent State on its part prays the Court to dismiss the Application with costs. * 159. Pursuant to Rule 32(2) of the Rules that “unless otherwise decided by the Court, each party shall bear its own costs, if any.” 80 Crospery Gabriel and Another v.
