...and *given* the references found...

Tom, I rarely close a question early but in this case, as it is highly unlikely that there will be further entries and the references my colleagues have found, I thought it appropriate. Will keep your comments in mind in the future, however. Thanks for your input. :)

If everyone used your logic re closing early then no one would respect the recommendation. This is a participation stifler... and participation is what the Kudoz system is built on!

4 KudoZ points awarded for this answer. Comment: "OK that's perfect. I know I'm not supposed to close so early, but given that lukane's answer is backed up by some fantastic references provided by Alvaro for a translation of the same announcements I am translating myself, this is it. Thanks very much everyone. Your input is always so helpful... :)"

Spanish term (edited): su mecanismo supervisor, el Tribunal Europeo de Derechos Humanos

its supervising body, the European Court of Human Rights

I'd go for "supervising body", as the ECHR is just that, and not a "mechanism" in the abstract
