                  The third plea in law is based on manifest error of assessment of the law and relevant facts of the case at issue with respect to the finding of the European Commission which is contained in section 3.3.1.3 and in section 3.3.1.4 of the contested decision in relation to the affirmation of the criterion of the principle of necessity and the principle of proportionality.

                  7.
