GO had a right to assign any of its lawyers to deal with the applicants' case. Therefore, the Court finds no ground for objection.
136. Further, it has to be established whether the costs and expenses incurred for legal representation were necessary. The Court notes that because of the application of Article 29 § 3 in the present case, the applicants' representatives submitted their observations on admissibility and merits in a single set of pleadings. It thus doubts that legal drafting was necessarily time-consuming to the extent claimed by the representatives. It also notes that the applicants' representatives have not submitted any documents in support of their claim for administrative costs.
137. Having regard to the details of the claims submitted by the applicants and ruling on an equitable basis, the Court awards the amount of EUR 5,000, less EUR 850 received by way of legal aid from the Council of Europe, together with any value-added tax that may be chargeable, the net award to be paid into the representatives' bank account in the Netherlands, as identified by the applicants.
D. Default interest
138. The Court considers it appropriate that the default interest should be based on the marginal lending rate of the European Central Bank, to which should be added three percentage points.
