Action brought on 27 October 2020 — Symrise v ECHA
(Case T-656/20)
(2021/C 53/60)
Language of the case: English

Parties


Applicant: Symrise AG (Holzminden, Germany) (represented by: A, B, C, lawyers)

Defendant: European Chemicals Agency

Form of order sought

The applicant claims that the Court should:






—


annul decision of 18 August 2020 of the European Chemicals Agency’s Board of Appeal in case number A-009-2018 in its entirety;










—


order the Agency to pay the costs of the proceedings.





Pleas in law and main arguments

In support of the action, the applicant relies on three pleas in law.






1.


First plea in law, alleging that the Agency committed a manifest error of assessment and misinterpreted the REACH Regulation by requesting the tests on vertebrate animals on the Substance, by justifying the need for tests by reference to workers’ exposure and by failing to take the safety of the Substance as assessed under the Cosmetics Regulation into account.










2.


Second plea in law, alleging that the Agency committed a manifest error of assessment and breached its duty to state reasons by deciding that the extended one-generation reproductive toxicity study with several extensions (the ‘EOGRTS’) would need to be conducted via the oral route.










3.


Third plea in law, alleging that the Agency breached Article 25 of the REACH regulation and committed a manifest error of assessment in imposing the deadlines of the Contested Decision.

Action brought on 27 October 2020 — Clean Sky 2 Joint Undertaking v NG
(Case T-649/20)
(2020/C 433/80)
Language of the case: Italian

Parties


Applicant: Clean Sky 2 Joint Undertaking (represented by: M. Velardo, lawyer, and B. Mastantuono, acting as Agent)

Defendant: NG

Form of order sought

The applicant claims that the General Court should:






—


order the defendant to pay Clean Sky 2 Joint Undertaking the sum of EUR 168 062,23 in relation to Grant Agreement No 632420 ‘FIMAC, FAST impact cross-analysis methodology for Composite leading edge Structures’ under the Seventh Framework Programme of the European Union, plus interest at the rate of 3,5 % applied by the European Central Bank for its main refinancing operations, as from 13 July 2019 until the date of actual payment;










—


order the defendant to pay the costs of these proceedings.





Pleas in law and main arguments

In support of the action, the applicant relies on the following plea in law:
The defendant has failed to fulfil its contractual obligations by failing to reimburse the amount relating to staff costs, held not to be eligible for funding. As a result, the applicant issued, on 12 July 2019, a debit note for the amount of EUR 168 062,23 already paid to Alpha Consulting Service Srl, which has been removed from the commercial register. Pursuant to Italian law, the defendant is liable for Alpha Consulting Service Srl’s failure to fulfil its contractual obligations since it took over the role of shareholder, liquidator and representative of Alpha Consulting Service Srl, which has been removed from the commercial register. The objections made by the company after the debit note was issued are generic, incomplete and not supported by evidence and, therefore, appear to be entirely unfounded. As a result, the applicant is entitled to seek recovery and reimbursement of the amount paid, plus default interest.

Notice concerning a request in accordance with Article 34 of Directive 2014/25/EU
Request made by a contracting entity
(2020/C 361/07)
On 2 October 2020 the Commission received a request pursuant to Article 35 of Directive 2014/25/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council (1). The first working day following receipt of the request is 5 October 2020.
This request, made by Österreichische Postbus AG concerns non- commercial bus services in Austria. Article 34 of Directive 2014/25/EU provides that ‘contracts intended to enable an activity mentioned in Articles 8 to 14 to be carried out shall not be subject to this Directive if the Member State or the contracting entities having introduced the request pursuant to Article 35 can demonstrate that, in the Member State in which it is performed, the activity is directly exposed to competition on markets to which access is not restricted; nor shall design contests that are organized for the pursuit of such an activity in that geographic area be subject to this Directive’. The assessment of direct exposure to competition that can be carried out in the context of Directive 2014/25/EU is without prejudice to the full-fledged application of competition law.
The Commission is allowed a period of 145 working days to take a decision on this request, commencing on the working day referred to above. The period therefore expires on 10 May 2021.
According to Article 35(5) of Directive 2014/25/EU, further requests concerning the same activity in Austria, received before the expiry of the period opened in respect of this request, shall not be considered as new procedures and shall be treated in the context of this request.
