Appendix Individual opinion of Mrs. Rosalvn. Hiaains pursuant to rule 92. paragraph 3, of the Committee's rules of procedure concerning communication No. 347/1988 (S.G. v. France) Taking the view already expressed in respect of communications Nos. 220/1987 and 222/1987 a/ that the French "declaration" on article 27 is not properly to be interpreted as a reservation, I am unable to agree with the provisions of paragraph 5.3 of the decision, that the Committee is precluded from considering complaints against France alleging a violation of article 27 of the Covenant. However, the facts of the case reveal to me no substantiation of a claim under article 27, and I therefore also reach the conclusion that there are no grounds for admissibility.
