Operative part of the judgment







1.


Article 17 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union must be interpreted as not precluding the compensation granted by a Member State for the losses suffered by an economic operator as a result of the protective measures applicable in a Natura 2000 area under Directive 2009/147/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 30 November 2009 on the conservation of wild birds being significantly less than the damage actually incurred by that operator;










2.


Article 107(1) TFEU must be interpreted as meaning that compensation granted by a Member State for the losses suffered by an economic operator as a result of the protective measures applicable in a Natura 2000 network area under Directive 2009/147 confers an advantage capable of constituting ‘State aid’ for the purposes of that provision, where the other conditions relating to such a classification are satisfied;










3.


Article 3(2) of Regulation (EU) No 717/2014 of 27 June 2014 on the application of Articles 107 and 108 [TFEU] to de minimis aid in the fishery and aquaculture sector must be interpreted as meaning that, in a case where the compensation such as that described in point 2 of this operative part fulfils the conditions of Article 107(1) TFEU, the de minimis ceiling of EUR 30 000, provided for in that Article 3(2) of Regulation No 717/2014, is applicable to that compensation.

Stop Vivisection

The number of European 
citizens’ initiatives that 
have successfully reached 
the required number of 
support statements for the 
European Commission to 
take action, continues to 
grow. Some have resulted 
in new legislation, while 
others have had other 
meaningful results. All of 
them have built networks 
around issues and raised 
awareness among both 
citizens and policy-makers.

 The ultimate aim 
of EU legislation is to 
phase out all animal 
testing. In response 
to the citizens’ 
initiative, the European 
Commission is taking 
a number of actions to 
enable faster progress 
in the uptake and 
use of alternative 
approaches.

Appeal brought on 27 January 2022 by Romania against the judgment of the General Court (Tenth Chamber) delivered on 10 November 2021 in Case T-495/19 Romania v Commission
(Case C-54/22 P)
(2022/C 128/16)
Language of the case: Romanian

Parties


Appellant: Romania (represented by: E. Gane, L. Liţu and L.-E. Baţagoi, Agents)

Other parties to the proceedings: European Commission, Hungary

Form of order sought

The appellant claims that the Court of Justice should:






—


allow the appeal, set aside the judgment of the General Court in Case T-495/19, in so far as it concerns the analysis relating to the plea based on the infringement of Article 4(2)(b) of Regulation No 211/2011, and adjudicate in Case T-495/19, upholding the application for annulment of Commission Decision (EU) 2019/721;










—


or, alternatively, allow the appeal, set aside the judgment of the General Court in Case T-495/19, in so far as it concerns the analysis relating to the plea based on the infringement of Article 4(2)(b) of Regulation No 211/2011, and refer Case T-495/19 back to the General Court so that the latter may adjudicate afresh, uphold the application for annulment and annul Commission Decision (EU) 2019/721;










—


order the Commission to pay the costs.





Pleas in law and main arguments

In support of the appeal, Romania relies on a single ground, alleging the infringement of Article 4(2)(b) of Regulation No 211/2011, in conjunction with Article 5(2) TEU.
Romania submits that the General Court erred in law, thereby infringing the provisions in question.






(i)


First, the General Court so erred by its interpretation concerning the conditions in which the Commission could refuse to register a European citizens’ initiative — in particular when it found that such a refusal may occur only where the possibility for the Commission of submitting a proposal for an EU legal act for the purpose of implementing the Treaties may be totally excluded.
However, such an initiative, it is submitted, manifestly falls outside the framework of the Commission’s powers to submit a proposal for an EU legal act if, following a legal assessment in abstracto of the measures proposed, there are serious doubts that such measures could be adopted on the basis of the Treaties.










(ii)


Secondly, the General Court erred by its interpretation concerning the possibility for the Commission of registering a proposed European citizens’ initiative with reservations or conditionally.
However, in such a situation, the Commission is required to refer to all the mandatory and optional information provided by the organisers and cannot disregard it even in part.
