      Pleas in law and main arguments
   
   In support of the action, the applicant relies on two pleas in law.
   
               1.
            
            
               First plea in law, alleging unlawful and manifestly incorrect classification and labelling of the substance anthraquinone as a Category 1B carcinogenic substance in accordance with Table 3 of Part 3 of Annex I to the CLP Regulation
               
                           —
                        
                        
                           That classification and labelling are not based on sufficient evidence obtained from reliable and acceptable studies demonstrating a causal relationship between the substance anthraquinone as such and an increased incidence of tumours in experimental animals within the meaning of points 3.6.1 and 3.6.2 of Part 3 of Annex I to the CLP Regulation.
                        
                     
         
               2.
            
            
               Second plea in law, alleging breach of the applicant’s rights and of principles enshrined in the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms and the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union
               
                           —
                        
                        
                           As a consequence of the unlawful and manifestly incorrect classification and labelling of the substance anthraquinone as a Category 1B carcinogenic substance in accordance with Table 3 of Part 3 of Annex I to the CLP Regulation, there was a breach in particular of the applicant’s right to peaceful enjoyment of its property and the principle of legal certainty.
