The agreement, ratified by all the States members of the Union, restored different organisms of control located in Strasbourg : The Commission, ordered
to beforehand study requests presented by the States or, possibly, the
people.
The more time greater number of causes to instruct forced to reform the mechanism of control restored by the Agreement (addenda to the Protocol n°11) so that the 1st of November of 1998 these organisms were replaced by an only European Court of Human rights. The simplification of the structures allowed to shorten the duration of the procedures and to reinforce the judicial character of the system.
