Legal basis
The Act on the Restitution of Damage to Persons Erased from the Register of Permanent Residents — Zakon o povračilu škode osebam, ki so bile izbrisane iz registra stalnega prebivalstva (ZPŠOIRSP), Uradni list RS 99/2013 entry 3547 of 2013-12-03 (page 10695) — is the fourth and final statutory layer of the IZBRISANI redress architecture. It was adopted by the Državni zbor on 2013-11-21 (46 votes for / 29 against per Mirovni inštitut documentation, SI-SRC-D-029), promulgated in Uradni list RS 99/2013 of 2013-12-03, entered into force 2013-12-18, and was substantively applicable from 2014-06-18 following a six-month preparation period for the implementing administrative apparatus.
ZPŠOIRSP is doctrinally and operationally distinct from ZUSDDD (the IZBRISANI status-redress statute, SI-SRC-A-049/A-050/A-051):
- ZUSDDD (1999 + 2010-B amendment) addresses legal status: it provides the IZBRISANI cohort with (a) permanent-residence permits and (b) the posebna odločba za nazaj retroactive special decision establishing ex tunc legal continuity from the erasure date forward. ZUSDDD is the statutory operationalisation of the constitutional-court rulings U-I-284/94 (1999-02-04) and U-I-246/02 (2003-04-03) and is treated under routes SI-IZB-001, SI-IZB-002, and SI-IZB-003.
- ZPŠOIRSP addresses pecuniary redress: it provides monetary compensation for the loss attributable to the period of erasure. It is the statutory operationalisation of the ECtHR Article 46 mandate delivered in Kurić and Others v. Slovenia (Grand Chamber pilot judgment, 2012-06-26, Application No. 26828/06), which directed Slovenia to "set up an ad-hoc compensation scheme within one…
