               ACTION for damages brought on the basis of Article 340 TFEU seeking compensation for the damage allegedly suffered by the
                  applicants, first, as a result of the unlawful decision of the Commission of 10 November 1997 concerning State aid N 679/97
                  and, secondly, on account of an alleged infringement of the principle of sound administration stemming from a failure on the
