The reservation concerns the Law On Land Reform in the Republic of Latvia Rural Regions (published in Zinotajs [The Bulleting] 1990, No. 49; 1991, No. 41; 1992, No. 6/7; 1992, No. 11/12; 1993, No. 18/19; Latvijas Vestnesis [The Latvian Herald] 1994, No. 137), Law On Privatisation of Agricultural Enterprises and Collective Fisheries (Zinotajs 1991, No. 31; 1992, No. 40/41; 1993, No. 5/6; Latvijas Vestnesis 1995, No. 90; 1996, No. 177), Law On Land Reform in the Republic of Latvia Cities (Zinotajs 1991, No. 49/50; Latvijas Vestnesis 1994, No. 47; 1994, No. 145; 1995, No. 169; 1997, No. 126/127), Law On Land Privatisation in Rural Regions (Zinotajs 1992, No. 32; 1993, No. 18/19; Latvijas Vestnesis 1993, No. 130; 1994, No. 148; 1995, No. 162; 1996, No. 111; 1996, No. 225), Law On Privatisation of Property in Agroservice Enterprises (Zinotajs 1993, No. 14), Law On Privatisation Certificates (Latvijas Vestnesis 1995, No. 52), Law On the Privatisation of Objects of State and Municipal Property (Latvijas Vestnesis 1994, No. 27; 1994, No. 77; 1996, No. 192; 1997, No. 16/17/18/19/20/21), Law On Privatisation of Co-operative Apartments (Zinotajs 1991, No. 51; Latvijas Vestnesis 1995, No. 135), Law On the Privatisation of State and Local Self-Government Apartment Houses (Latvijas Vestnesis 1995, No. 103; 1996, No. 149; 1996, No. 223), Law On Denationalisation of Real Estate in the Republic of Latvia (1991, No. 46; Latvijas Vestnesis 1994, No. 42; 1994, No. 90; 1995, No. 137; 1996, No. 219/220), Law On the Return of Real Estate to the Legitimate Owners (Zinotajs 1991, No. 46; Latvijas Vestnesis 1994, No. 42; 1996, No. 97) and their wording being in force at the moment the Law On Ratification entered into force. Annex to the reservation In addition to the reservation to Article 1 of the First Protocol, made in accordance with Article 64 of the Convention, the Republic of Latvia hereby gives a brief summary of the laws concerned. The goal of the Law On Land Reform in the Republic of Latvia Rural Regions is to allocate the land for paying use to natural persons and legal persons and to renew to the Republic of Latvia citizens, who desire so, the land ownership rights in the procedure stipulated by law or to deliver the land into ownership without compensation or for pay. The Law On Privatisation of Agricultural Enterprises and Collective Fisheries regulates privatisation of agricultural enterprises and collective fisheries. The objective of the Law is to decrease sequels of unlawful methods of collectivisation changing the forms of property in agricutural enterprises and collective fisheries as well as to promote the process of privatisation in agriculture and development of private entrepreneurial activity. The aim of the Law On Land Reform in the Republic of Latvia Cities, during the gradual process of State property denationalisation, conversion, privatisation and the return of unlawfully expropriated land, is to restructure the legal, social and economic relations between city land owners and users in order to promote the respective city's construction, land protection and its rational utilisation in accordance with the interests of society. The main objectives of the Law On Land Privatisation in Rural Regions are: 1. to create a basis and guarantees for agricutural development; 2. to renew land ownership rights to the former landowners who owned the land on July 21, 1940 or their heirs; and 3. to give the land into ownership of the Republic of Latvia citizens for compensation. The Law On Privatisation of Property in Agroservice Enterprises regulates the change of ownership rights on property under the use and disposal of agroservice enterprises. The main objective of the Law is to promote the development of enterpreneurial activity in this branch by property privatisation, and to create conditions for organisation of the system for protection of the interests of agricultural producers on the basis of co-operation and competition. The Law establishes the rights of the State and local self-governments, agricutural producers and employees of an enterprise, as well as of other natural persons and legal persons, and the procedure by which the ownership rights on the property under use and disposal of agroservice enterprise shall be obtained or specified. The goal of the Law On Privatisation Certificates is to establish a legal basis for most of Latvia's residents to participate in the process of privatisation of State and local self-government owned property, using privatisation certificates as form of payment. Certificates are issued to Latvia's residents according to the years of residence in Latvia. Additional certificates can be issued to former owners or their heirs, as compensation for illegally nationalised real estate which cannot be returned; politically repressed persons who are recognised as such, according to the Republic of Latvia Law of May 13, 1992 ‘On the Determination of the Status of a Politically Repressed Person’, corresponding to time of imprisonment, deportation or time of settling. The Law On the Privatisation of Objects of State and Municipal Property determines the procedure for privatisation of objects of State and local self-government property, as far as it is not regulated by other laws, as well as the establishment and operational principles of the Latvian Privatisation Agency. The Law On Privatisation of Co-operative Apartments establishes the legal basis for the privatisation of the co-operative dwelling fund of house-building co-operatives in the territory of the Republic of Latvia. Apartments in large dwelling houses owned by house-building co-operatives shall be considered as the object of privatisation. The Law On the Privatisation of State and Local Self-Governments Apartment Houses establishes the procedure for privatising State and local self-government apartment houses, and the goal is to develop the real estate market and stimulate the upkeep of apartment houses, while protecting the interests of residents. The Law On Denationalisation of Real Estate defines the real estate which can be denationalised, fixes the terms and procedure of denationalisation, the form of compensation and social guarantees of present tenants. The Law On the Return of Real Estate to the Legitimate Owners guarantees that the real which has been expropriated by the State in the 1940s–1980s without compensation will be returned to the former owners or their legal heirs. .

Declaration In addition to the reservation to Article 1 of the First Protocol, made in accordance with Article 64 of the Convention, the Republic of Estonia hereby gives a brief summary of the laws mentioned in the reservation. The Principles of the Property Reform Act provides that the objective of property reform is the restructuring of property relationships to secure proprietary integrity and free enterprise, to remedy the injustices done by violations of the right to property and to provide prerequisites for a switch to a market oriented economy. In the course of property reform, property will be compensated for or returned to the former owners or their legal heirs. Herewith other people's interests which are protected by law must not be violated nor new injustices be caused to them. In the course of property reform, property unlawfully expropriated during the period of June 16, 1940 to June 1, 1981 by means of nationalisation, collectivisation or expropriation through unlawful repression or other means violating the rights of the owner, will be returned or compensated. In the course of property reform, the form of ownership will be changed as follows: 1. some of the state-owned property will be municipalised withou charge; 2. state-owned or municipally-owned property will be privatised free of charge or for remuneration; 3. property which was transferred free of charge by the state (during the Soviet annexation) to cooperatives, state-cooperatives and communal organisations, will be returned to the Republic of Estonia. The procedure of restoration and compensation of unlawfully expropriated property is regulated by laws and other legal acts. The Land Reform Act establishes that land reform is a part of property reform and its objective is to restructure legal relationships based on state-owned land to relationships based on private land, proceeding form the continuity of the rights of the former owners and the interests of the present land-users as protected by law. In the course of the land reform, land: 1. unlawfully expropriated will be compensated, substituted by or returned to the former owners or their legal heirs; 2. will be given with or without charge into the possession of private-law persons, public-law persons or municipal entities; 3. that is to remain in the state possession will be decided upon; 4. will be transferred for use by private or legal persons by contract or along with the building title. Land that is not returned, nor substituted, nor left in state possession, nor given to municipal possession under the present law, will be privatised. The Agricultural Reform Act provides that agricultural reform proceeds from the Principles of the Property Act. In the course of agricultural reform, collectivised property will be returned or compensated for and the collective unit will be reorganised or liquidated. Evaluation of the collectivised property is carried out in accordance with the Act on Evaluation of Collectivised Property. In the course of agricultural reform the transformation of the agricultural sector is principally aimed towards farming and enterprise based on private ownership. The Privatisation Act provides that the property of state-owned or municipally-owned enterprises, institutions and organisations may be privatised under the conditions and rules set out by law. The Privatisation Agency regulates privatisation of state property and fulfilment of other tasks deriving from the property reform. The Privatisation Act is not applied to the privatisation of dwelling rooms in the possession of the state or municipalities, nor to non-dwelling rooms located in dwelling houses, nor to the property of cooperatives referred to in the Agricultural Reform Act. The Dwelling Rooms Privatisation Act provides that natural persons and legal persons will be given the opportunity to acquire the dwelling rooms they are renting, uninhabited dwelling rooms, thus providing for better care and preservation of the dwelling houses. The Act on Evaluation and Compensation of Unlawfully Expropriated Property defines the foundations and rules, as well as the means and scope of compensation, for determining the price of unlawfully expropriated property dealt with under the property reform. The Act on Evaluation of Collectivised Property provides the procedure and grounds for determining the price of property as required for the compensation of collectivised property in accordance with Article 14 of the Principles of Property Reform Act which deals with the return and compensation of collectivised property, and Article 9 of the Agricultural Reform Act that deals with loans and other material obligations of the collective economic unit. .
