Reparations
Both in his written submissions and at the Public hearing, the Applicant prays
the Court to order the Respondent State to amend its legislation if it finds that it
violates international obligations of the latter. He also prays the court to order the
Respondent State to compensate, "particularly to offset the loss in income and
profits and award him compensation for moral prejudice."
173.
Pursuant to Rule 63 of the Rules, "the Court shall rule on the request for
reparation, submitted in accordance with Rule 34(5) of these Rules, by the same
decision establishing the violation of a human and peoples' rights or, if the
circumstances so require, by a separate decision."
174.
Having ruled on all the allegations made by the parties, the Court will rule on
the request for compensation in a ruling, after the Parties have submitted their
observations on the matter.

the provisions of Rule 30 above.
