               Annul the Commission's decision of 16 November 2007 disallowing part of the applicant's costs in the context of the ‘Daphne Grant Agreement JAI/DAP/2004-2/052/W’;
            
         
               —
            
            
               order the defendant to pay the costs.
            
         Pleas in law and main arguments
   In May 2005, the applicant and the Commission signed an agreement on support for a project in connection with the Daphne II programme (1). By letter of 16 November 2007, the defendant sent the applicant a revised calculation of the payment to the applicant that was still outstanding, in which part of the applicant's costs were deemed to be ineligible for support. The applicant brought the present action against that decision.
   The applicant claims in support of its action that the contested decision is based on an erroneous assessment of the facts. In particular, adequate supporting evidence was inappropriately regarded as being inadequate, and costs of employing temporary assistants and trainees, together with costs provided for in the budget and certain travel costs were inappropriately disallowed.
   
      (1)  Decision No 803/2004/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 21 April 2004 adopting a programme of Community action (2004 to 2008) to prevent and combat violence against children, young people and women and to protect victims and groups at risk (the Daphne II programme) (OJ 2004 L 143, p. 1).
