BOUYID v. BELGIUM JUDGMENT 35 that if the Court were to consider that the restoration of the applicants’ rights as a result of a finding of a violation constituted insufficient redress, the award under that head should be reduced to a fair level. 138. The Court considers it undeniable that the applicants sustained nonpecuniary damage on account of the violation of the substantive and procedural heads of Article 3 of the Convention of which they were the victims. Making its assessment on an equitable basis as required by Article 41 of the Convention, it awards each of them EUR 5,000 under this head. B. Costs and expenses 139. As before the Chamber, the applicants claimed EUR 4,088.71 in respect of their costs and expenses before the domestic courts. They further claimed EUR 25,167.04 in respect of their costs and expenses relating to the proceedings before the Court, that is to say EUR 7,051.42 in respect of Mr Marchand’s fees and EUR 18,115.62 in respect of Mr Chihaoui’s fees. They explained that they had agreed hourly rates of EUR 85 and EUR 125 respectively with the two lawyers. Furthermore, Mr Marchand had charged them for thirty-five hours’ preparation of their application, approximately thirteen hours’ preparation of their request for referral to the Grand Chamber and approximately nine hours’ preparation of their memorial before the Grand Chamber, and Mr Chihaoui had charged them fifty-one hours’ preparation of their observations before the Chamber, sixty-nine hours’ preparation of their request for referral to the Grand Chamber and approximately nine hours’ preparation of their memorial before the Grand Chamber. They produced various documents in support of these claims. 140. The Government, who did not comment on these claims before the Grand Chamber, had stated in their observations before the Chamber that they considered the hourly rate of EUR 85 reasonable. On the other hand, they had submitted that consulting a second lawyer charging an hourly rate of EUR 125 seemed unnecessary, and had consequently requested that this part of the claim be rejected or, at the very least, that the same hourly rate of EUR 85 be applied. 141. According to the Court’s case-law, an applicant is entitled to the reimbursement of costs and expenses only in so far as it has been shown that these have been actually and necessarily incurred and are reasonable as to quantum (see, for example, Jeunesse v. the Netherlands [GC], no. 12738/10, § 135, 3 October 2014). In the present case, regard being had to the documents in its possession and the above criteria, the Court considers it reasonable to award the applicants the sum of EUR 10,000 jointly for the costs and expenses incurred before the domestic courts and before the Court.
