         Form of order sought
      
      The applicants claim that the Court should:
      
                  —
               
               
                  partially annul Decision C(2020) 7692 final of the European Commission of 10 November 2020 for the part that excludes Italy from the scope of the investigation and from the legal consequences of Article 11(6) of Regulation 1/2003;
               
            
                  —
               
               
                  order the Commission to bear the applicants’ costs and expenses in connection with these proceedings.
               
            
         Plea in law and main arguments
      
      In support of the action, the applicants rely on one plea in law, alleging that the Contested Decision unlawfully carved Italy out of the scope of Case AT.40703 and excluded Italy from the legal consequences of Article 11(6) of Regulation 1/2003. In so doing, the Contested Decision violated Article 11(6) of Regulation 1/2003 and undermined its effectiveness and/or it circumvented Article 11(6) of Regulation 1/2003 and defeated the purpose of its existence.
