81In the third place, as the Advocate General has noted in points 136 and 157 of his Opinion, the rights of usufruct concerned amount to a fraction of ownership in the sense that they confer on their holders two essential attributes of the right to property, namely the right to use the property concerned and the right to collect the revenue from it. The contested provision cancels all the existing rights of usufruct over the land concerned, with the exception of those rights that were created between close members of the same family. Cancellation of such a kind thus, by definition, deprives the persons concerned — in a compulsory, complete and definitive manner — of those rights of usufruct to the benefit of the legal owners of the land.
