The Panel recommends compensation in relation to the claim for loss of support and MPA.

Hence, a claim for equity interests is generally duplicative of other asset losses already claimed.

Iraq further states that the claim for loss of well being is merely theoretical.

C5 Bank Accounts ( BA ) and C5 Stocks and Other Securities ( SOS )

The total amount of compensation sought is USD 613,814,608, comprising USD 574,200,000 for damage to aquatic biota, USD 16,599,464 for damage to shoreline resources and USD 23,015,144 for lost recreational opportunities.

Claim 5000183 is for expenses and other losses related to public health damage.

Accordingly, the Panel recommends compensation in the amount of USD 46,113,706 for this claim unit.

Claim No. 5000462 is for damage to cultural heritage resources claim No. 5000467 is for damage to livestock resources and claim No. 5000303 is for public health damage.

The Panel finds that the claimant has failed to prove his claim for business losses and recommends no award of compensation.

The E4 Panel recommended compensation for loss of tangible property, but not for loss of stock, when it reviewed the claim.

The fourth claim unit is for damage to or depletion of marine resources in Iran caused by The oil spills in the Persian Gulf and Pollutants from the oil well fires.

The third claim unit is for damage to cultural heritage resources in Iran caused by contamination from the oil well fires.

At the time that it filed the original F3 claim, the National Committee claimed compensation for the losses and amounts set out in table 1 below

Moreover, if a woman wanted to file a lawsuit against violence, she had the right to claim damages.

The fact that the licence holder did not file a claim for the business tended to confirm an assertion by a non Kuwaiti claimant that he or she was the beneficial owner of the business.

The Pakistani claimant states that he and the Kuwaiti claimant had agreed that they would both file for the losses of the business before the Commission in accordance with their ownership interests.

If a polluter harms others, those who are harmed normally have a legal remedy.

However, where a claimant confirms that the claim is only for his or her equity interest in the company, and does not tie the equity claim to any specific asset lost as a result of Iraq's invasion and occupation of Kuwait, the Panel considers that generally such a claim is not compensable.

The second claim unit is for damage to or depletion of terrestrial and agricultural resources in Iran caused by contamination from the oil well fires in Kuwait.

In the light of these irregularities, the Panel finds that the claimant has failed to prove his claim for business losses and recommends no award of compensation.

The Panel therefore recommends no award of compensation in respect of the Pakistani claimant's C8 (individual business) loss claim.

In addition to personal losses of the detainee's father, this claim included a C3 (death) claim for the loss of support that would have been provided by the detainee to his family but for his death, together with a claim for the MPA suffered by the detainee's family resulting from his death.

Recall that victims of torture have a right to sue for compensation, including civil compensation, which can be based upon universal jurisdiction.

Iraq reiterates its view that failure by a claimant to take reasonable and timely measures to mitigate damage from the invasion and occupation amounts to contributory negligence and justifies rejection of the claim for compensation, or a corresponding reduction in the compensation to be awarded.

The loss of support claim in relation to the claimant's wife was valued on the basis of a letter from her employer confirming her employment as an administrative manager as at the date of the invasion and her salary of KWD 400 per month.

For example, in UNCC claim No. 3011313 the claimant supported his claim for business losses with audited financial statements for the fiscal year 1990 with an audit certificate dated 25 March 1991.

Even if the first author, as the sole heir, would have been entitled to claim compensation for the stocks, he had failed to have his ownership title registered in the compensation proceedings before the expiry of the deadline on 30 June 1976, as prescribed by section 11, paragraph 1, of the 1975 Act to finalize the currency conversion.

5. States should guarantee appropriate access to information relevant for the pursuance of remedies, including claims for compensation.

The Committee welcomes the draft National Plan on Justice, Peace and Security as an important step in providing victims of violent crime with the right to claim compensation.

It was also appropriate to emphasize the principle according to which pecuniary compensation could only be demanded by the directly injured State, within the meaning of article 5.

Without a specific agreement between the United Nations and troop contributing Governments, no compensation may be claimed for losses arising from damages to United Nations property caused by members of military contingents.

The Palestinian individual claimant whose claim had been identified as potentially overlapping with the E4 claim has provided evidence to support the claim for loss of stock.

In support of his claim for D3 (death) losses, the claimant provided death certificates for his wife and daughter confirming that their deaths were caused by a missile attack on 9 February 1991.

Specifically, the secretariat had failed to bring to the attention of the Panel the claimed loss for D1 (mental pain and anguish) for the illegal detention of the claimant for less than three days by Iraqi soldiers with an imminent threat to his life.

Claims of family members for personal losses

Four competing claims for business losses

The claim for damage to marine mammal resources is based on information from the published literature, which provides counts of animals killed from late February through mid April 1991.

Recall that victims of torture have a right to sue for compensation, including civil compensation, which can be based upon universal jurisdiction.

The other claim did not contain the claimant's affirmation concerning the losses claimed although the claimant was given an opportunity to remedy this formal deficiency.

They've stopped paying dividends.

They're talking about stocks on the radio.

Claims of family members for MPA

Claim No. 5000460 is for compensation for damage to or depletion of terrestrial, marine and groundwater resources, including the expenses of compensatory projects proposed to address the damage or depletion.

It is recommended that this disclosure include the concentration of shareholdings, for example the holdings of the top 20 largest shareholders.
