In
deciding
the
case
,
the
majority
have
,
firstly
,
failed
to
take
into
account
essential
aspects
of
the
purpose
behind
the
impugned
measure
(
see
below
,
§
5
)
.
Secondly
,
they
have
ignored
the
scope
of
the
margin
of
appreciation
afforded
to
the
States
in
the
Court
’s
case
-
law
(
see
below
,
§
§
6‑8
)
.
Thirdly
,
in
the
light
of
this
margin
of
appreciation
,
while
assessing
the
necessity
of
the
impugned
measure
in
a
democratic
society
,
the
majority
have
overlooked
several
features
of
the
case
.
In
particular
,
they
have
criticised
the
lack
of
an
assessment
of
the
specific
tasks
performed
by
individual
employees
of
the
former
security
services
,
but
have
themselves
not
taken
into
account
the
fact
that
according
to
the
Court
’s
case
-
law
,
the
requirement
for
“
individualisation
”
is
not
a
precondition
for
the
compatibility
of
a
measure
with
the
Convention
when
the
legislative
framework
is
itself
proportionate
and
not
discriminatory
(
see
below
,
§
9
)
.
In
this
context
the
majority
have
not
considered
the
graduated
approach
in
Estonian
legislation
to
the
different
persons
concerned
and
have
not
taken
into
account
the
procedural
and
substantive
safeguards
in
Estonian
legislation
to
prevent
errors
and
unjustified
or
arbitrary
interferences
(
see
below
,
§
§
10
-
18
)
.
They
have
overstated
the
significance
of
the
impugned
publication
’s
consequences
for
the
applicant
(
see
below
,
§
§
19
-
22
)
and
have
failed
to
comprehend
that
these
were
far
less
serious
than
the
consequences
faced
by
applicants
in
other
cases
concerned
with
forms
of
individualised
reactions
to
cooperation
with
totalitarian
regimes
(
see
below
,
§
23
)
.
In
the
same
vein
,
the
majority
have
attached
undue
weight
to
the
applicant
’s
job
title
in
the
KGB
,
and
to
the
time
that
had
elapsed
between
his
service
and
publication
of
the
notice
about
it
(
see
below
,
§
§
24
-
29
)
.
