—


Annul the notice of assessment of the applicant’s entitlement to a retirement pension, determined by Decision No 360/03 A of 15 December 2003, insofar as it ruled out or failed to provide for reimbursement of periodic annuity payments corresponding to his retirement pension which are paid by the Office national des pensions (National Pensions Office; ‘ONP’) of the Kingdom of Belgium to the bank account of the EESC as from 1 January 2004 as a result of the transfer of his pension rights;










—


Order the EESC to reimburse the applicant the amount of the periodic annuity payments paid by the ONP to the EESC since 1 January 2004 as a result of the transfer of his pension rights, together with late-payment interest at the rate set by the ECB for its main refinancing operations, increased by two points, from the date on which those reimbursements ought to have been made until payment in full;
