On 10 July 2018, the Committee registered the communication and requested the State party to take interim measures to suspend the eviction of the authors pending the consideration of the communication or to provide them with adequate alternative housing, in genuine consultation with them.
At its meeting on 13 October 2020, the Committee, having taken note of the State party’s request for discontinuance and of the authors’ withdrawal of the case on the grounds that alternative housing had been granted to one of them and that the remaining authors had signed a lease on the private market, decided to discontinue consideration of communication No. 97/2019, in accordance with rule 17 of its provisional rules of procedure under the Optional Protocol.
