Question referred

Are services carried out by an organisation issuing luncheon vouchers in Luxembourg for a restaurateur who is a member of its acceptance network exempt, either in full or in part, from VAT pursuant to Article 13B(d)(3) of the Sixth Council Directive 77/388/EEC (1) of 17 May 1977 on the harmonisation of the laws of the Member States relating to turnover taxes — Common system of value added tax: uniform basis of assessment, as amended, if a luncheon voucher is not a fully-fledged financial security and those services are not intended to guarantee payment for a meal purchased by an employee of the business customer (ibid. Article 13B(d)(2)), in the case of luncheon vouchers allocated by an employer to its employees under the State legislation …, given that membership of a luncheon vouchers network allows a member to profit from the custom of employees of the business customers of the luncheon voucher operator and that that operator is paying the processing costs for those luncheon vouchers?

(Case C-405/12 P)
2013/C 9/46
Language of the case: Dutch

Parties

Appellant: European Commission (represented by: P. Oliver, J.-P. Keppenne, G. Valero Jordana, P. van Nuffel, Agents)
Other parties to the proceedings: 






 


Stichting Natuur en Milieu,










 


Pesticide Action Network Europe,










 


Republic of Poland,










 


Council of the European Union





Form of order sought

The appellant claims that the Court should:






—


set aside the judgment of the General Court (Seventh Chamber) of 14 June 2012 in Case T-338/08;










—


rule on the substance of the case and dismiss the actions for annulment of the Commission’s decisions of 1 July 2008; and










—


order the applicants to pay the costs incurred by the Commission in Case T-338/08 and in this appeal.





Pleas in law and main arguments

The appellant’s first plea coincides with the first plea in Case C-403/12 P.
By its second plea, the Commission submits, in the alternative, that the General Court misinterpreted the scope of Article 9(3) of the Aarhus Convention (1) in the light of the second subparagraph of Article 2(2) of that convention, by concluding that the Commission did not act ‘in a legislative capacity’ within the meaning of the latter provision in adopting Regulation (EC) No 149/2008. (2)
