(represented by: L. Vogel, lawyer)

On the one hand, annulment of the decision of the Appointing
Authority to calculate the applicant's Community tax by
combining the amount of personal remuneration and the survi-
vor's pension, and of the decision rejecting the application for
the Community tax on her survivor's pension not
to be
deducted in advance, prior to payment of that pension, from
her remuneration. On the other, a finding that Articles 3 and 4
of Council Regulation No 260/68, as most recently amended by
Council Regulation No 2182/2003, are unlawful.

Form of order sought

— Annul the decision adopted by the Appointing Authority on
20 May 2008 rejecting the claim brought on 16 January
the decision of
2008 seeking annulment
16 October 2007 insofar as that decision laid down the
methods for calculation and payment of the Community tax

— insofar as necessary, annul in addition, in part, the decision
of 16 October 2007 in as much as it

cles 3 and 4 of Council Regulation No 260/68, as most

unlawful since those provisions stipulate that the survivor's
pension awarded to an official is to be added to his pay for
