Council of Europe Commissioner for Human Rights Thomas Hammarberg stated in 2008 that he believes the "arbitrary procedures for terrorist black-listing must now be changed". He said that he believes the measures have affected a number of rights of the targeted individuals, including the right to privacy, the right to property, the right of association, the right to travel or freedom of movement, and there has been no possibility to appeal or even know all the reasons for the blacklisting, eliminating the right to an effective remedy and due process.[25]
