Form of order sought

appellants submit that the Court of First Instance has, firstly,
misconstrued Article 20 of Regulation No 2371/2002 (1) and,
in particular, the scope of the residual powers of Member States
it has misconstrued
thereof. Secondly,
under Article 20(3)
Article 20(5) in relying upon the possibility of inter-Member
State quota exchanges to exclude direct concern for the appel-
lants. Lastly, it has erroneously ignored the fact that the appel-
lants are directly concerned, as a closed group of individuals, by
the contested regulation.

(1) Council Regulation (EC) No 2371/2002 of 20 December 2002 on
the conservation and sustainable exploitation of fisheries resources
under the Common Fisheries Policy (OJ L 358, p. 59).

Defendant: Agenzia delle Entrate

The applicants claim that the Court should:

Question referred

— set aside the order of the Court of First Instance in its

entirety;

— remit the case to the Court of First Instance for judgment on
the substance of the application, the balance of the objection
of inadmissibility of the Commission of 7 September 2007
to be reserved for the said decision on the merits;

— order the Commission to pay the costs incurred by the

appellants in respect of this appeal.

Is it permissible under Article 17(3)(a) of Council Directive
77/388/EEC (1) of 17 May 1977, in cases involving the supply
of telecommunications services between taxable persons resi-
dent in different Member States of the Community and where
the recipient is liable to value added tax, for the supplier to
deduct the tax payable on the acquisition or importation of
goods connected with such transactions which that supplier
would be entitled to deduct if he provided the same services
within his own country?

Pleas in law and main arguments

(1) OJ 1977 L 145, p. 1.

of Community law made in the order under appeal. The
