I denne sag kritiserede Kommissionen under henvisning til EØF-Traktatens artikel 95 den brudte progressivitet, som den særlige forbrugs­afgift og den særlige tillægsafgift på privatbiler betyder for køretøjer med et slagvolumen på over 1 800 cm3.
The Court observed that even though it applied independently of the nationality of the taxpayer in question, the condition that the taxpayer must be permanently resident in the national territory in order to obtain any refund of an overpayment of tax risked penalizing, in particular, taxpayers who were nationals of other Member States; it was often they who would leave the coutnry during the year or who would take up resi­dence there.
EØF-Traktatens artikel 119 Fratrædelsesgodtgørelse ved ansættelsesforholdets ophør — Deltidsansatte ikke omfattet
Article 119 of the EEC Treaty — Severance grant — Exclusion of part-time workers
På spørgsmålet fra Arbeitsgericht Hamburg om, hvorvidt en kollektiv overenskomst, der kun indrømmer heltidsansatte mulighed for at
In justification of the national provision in question, the tax authorities had submitted that the purpose of this provisions was to ensure that taxation was progressive, given the distribution of revenue and therefore taxation between at least two States in cases where a taxpayer transferred his residence during the course of the tax year.
gerne på grund af de pågældende afgifter ville afholde sig fra at købe automobiler med et cylindervolumen på over 1 800 cm3, som alle er fremstillet i udlandet og i stedet købe græsk fremstillede biler.
Community lawcourts of taxation increasing at a progressive rate in accordance with an objective criterion, such as cylinder capacity, provided that such a system of taxation was in no way discriminatory or protective in its effect, the Court endeavoured to establish, in respect of the latter condition, whether the disputed taxes were such as to deter consumers from purchasing vehicles with a cylinder capacity of more than 1800cc, which were all manu­factured abroad, in favour of vehicles manu­factured in Greece.
Den fandt ikke, at Kommissionen havde fast­slået dette, idet samtlige automobiler med et cylindervolume på mellem 1 600 og 1 800 cm3 fremstilles i udlandet, medens automobiler med et cylindervolumen på under 1 600 cm3både omfatter biler, der er fremstillet i udlandet og biler, der er fremstillet i Grækenland.
In response to a question from the Hamburg Arbeitsgericht (Labour Court) on the com­patibility with Article 119 of the EEC Treaty of a collective agreement under which only full­time workers were entitled to a severance grant, the Court of Justice held that such an agreement, which enabled employers to maintain a difference in total remuneration between two categories of workers, those working a minimum number of hours a week or a month and those who performed the same duties but did not work the minimum number of hours, did in fact lead to discrimination against female wor­kers in cases where a considerably lower percentage of men than of women worked part­time.
I øvrigt afviste Domstolen principielt erstat­ningssagen, idet sagsøgerne ikke havde fastslået, at Kommissionen havde udvist en retsstridig adfærd. Domstolen anførte således, at Kommis­sionen vedrørende de påståede i Italien og Græ­kenland stedfundne svigagtige forhold kun dis­ponerede over enkelte og usikre oplysninger fra de nationale myndigheder, og at den kontrol, som EUGFL udførte, ikke 'havde bevist eksi­stensen af et sådan omfang af retsstridige for­hold, som sagsøgerne påstod.
It concluded that the Commission had failed to demonstrate this point, since all models in the range between 1600 and 1800cc were manufactured abroad and the range of vehicles with a cylinder capacity of less than 1600cc included both vehicles built abroad and vehicles built in Greece.
Bageegnet blød hvede — Særlig markedsintervention — Opkøbspris — Kommissionens kompetence
Aid for tomato processing — Complaint on the ground of fraud, on which no action was taken — Action for annulment and claim for damages
Støtte til forarbejdning af tomater — Klage over bedragerier — Annulations- og erstatningssøgsmål
Taxation of cars — Discriminatory or protective effect — Article 95 of the EEC Treaty
Sonito gjorde i nævnte klage opmærksom på, at som følge af svigagtige forhold, som forarbejd­ningsvirksomheder, der udøver virksomhed i Grækenland og i Italien, havde begået, var det talmateriale, som Kommissionen havde anvendt til i fem produktionsår, nemlig fra 1983/19841987/1988, at fastslå, hvorvidt der var tale om overskridelse af garantitærsklen og om der skulle foretages deraf følgende nedslag i forarbejdningsstøtten for tomater, ukorrekt.
Sonito, a French company, maintained that as a result of massive frauds committed in Italy and Greece the figures used by the Commission to establish, for the five mar­keting years 1983/84 to 1987/88, that the guarantee threshold had been exceeded and the corresponding reduction in aid for tom­ato processing has been wrong.
Dommen tager stilling til, hvorvidt den pris, som Kommissionen har fastsat ved interventionsopkøb af bageegnet blød hvede er lovlig, idet differentieringen efter medlemsstat af de opkøbte mængder allerede blev fundet ikkediskriminerende i forbindelse med sag C167/88.
In this case, the Commission, on the basis of Article 95 of the Treaty, maintained that Greece's special consumption tax and the single supplementary special tax, applying to private cars with a cylinder capacity in excess of 1800cc, constituted a discontinuity in the progressiveness of tax rates.
Sagsøgerne klagede over den afgørelse, ifølge hvilken Kommissionen havde henlagt deres klage og anmodet dem om at anlægge sag med ovennævnte begrundelse med påstand om, at de pågældende medlemsstater havde undladt at opfylde deres forpligtelser og at korrigere de fejlagtige oplysninger.
The applicants challenged the Com­mission's decision to take no action on their complaint requesting it to correct the false data and to initiate proceedings against the Member States concerned for failure to ful­fil their obligations.
Da Rådet ikke kunne vedtage kornpriserne for produktionsåret 1985/1986 traf Kommissionen for at dække dette retlige tomrum afgørelse om de priser, der var absolut nødvendige for, at den fælles markedsordning fortsat kunne fungere.
Having pointed out that Article 95 of the Treaty did not allow any disapproval to be expressed of excessive taxation levels which Member States might specify for particular goods on social policy grounds, and that Member States were free to make goods such as motor vehicles subject to a system
Domstolen, der heri fulgte Kommissionens bemærkninger, har på ingen måde begrundet Kommissionens kompetence med det forhold, at Rådet ikke havde truffet afgørelse, hvilket truede med at lamme udviklingen af den fælles landbrugspolitik, men med bestemmelserne i forordning (EØF) nr. 2727/75, hvorefter Rådet
The Court, following its established case­law, declared the action for annulment
kan give Kommissionen beføjelse til at foretage særlige interventioner på markedet for bageegnet blød hvede og derefter fastsætte opkøbsprisen for hvede ved vedtagelsen af interventions­foranstaltningen samt nedsætte den i forhold til foregående produktionsår i overensstemmelse med den politik for absorption af overskud­dene, som Rådet allerede bebudede fra 1984.
The Court, in line with the Commission's comments, vindicated the Commission's action not on the grounds of the Council's failure to act, which threatened to paralyse the development of the common agricul­tural policy, but on the basis of the existing provisions of Regulation No 2727/75, by which the Council delegates to the Com­mission powers to adopt special inter­vention arrangements on the market for common wheat of bread­making quality and, consequently, to set the buying­in price of wheat at the time when the intervention measure is adopted and to reduce this price by comparison with the previous marketing year in the light of the policy for reducing surpluses announced by the Council in 1984.

This judgment is concerned with the lawful­ness of the price set by the Commission for the buying­in of common wheat of bread­making quality, the non­discriminatory nature of the different quantitative limits for intervention buying for the various Member States having already been established in Case C­167/88.
Kommissionens forordninger (EØF) nr. 962/88 og (EØF) nr. 984/88 om suspension af udstedel­sen af importlicenser for spiseæbler med oprin­delse i Chile samt forordning (EØF) nr. 1040/88 om fastsættelse af importmængderne for spi­seæbler med oprindelse i tredjelande er ved denne dom blevet annulleret for så vidt de vedrører produkter, der er undervejs til Fælles­skabet, med den begrundelse, at Kommissionen i den foreliggende sag ikke har gjort en overordnet offentlig interesse, der berettiger anvendelsen af suspensionsforanstaltninger over for de pågældende varer, gældende.
By this judgment, Commission Regulations Nos 962/88 and 984/88 and Regulation No 1040/88 were declared void in so far as they concerned products in transit, on the grounds that the Commission had in this case failed to show a superior public interest justifying the application of suspension measures affecting the goods in question.
Baggrunden for denne sag er nedsættelsen med 50% i overensstemmelse med artikel 2 i belgisk kongelig bekendtgørelse nr. 471 af 24. oktober 1986, af lønningerne til de belgiske lærere, der er udstationeret på Europa-skolerne, hvorved fællesskabsbudgettet pålægges en ekstra byrde.
In response to the Council's failure to adopt cereal prices for the 1985/86 marketing year, the Commission had determined the prices necessary for the continued operation of the common organization of the market.
Domstolen og Retten i Første Instans disse forskellige retsmidler, der er fastlagt ved Euratom-Traktaten såvel som EØF-Traktaten, hvor hensigtsmæssige og forskellige de end er, kan vise sig at være ineffektive eller uvisse.
Community lawcourts which led to an increase in the burden on the Community budget.
Der skal for så vidt angår finansieringen af Europa-skolerne mindes om. at medlemssta­terne yder et bidrag svarende til de nationale lønninger for de lærere, som de udstationerer, og Kommissionen et bidrag, der dækker resten af udgifterne på skolernes budget.
The European Schools are financed by a contribution from the Member States equal to the national salaries of the teachers seconded by them and a Commission contri­bution covering the remainder of the expen­diture entered in the School's budget ('Euro­pean supplement').
Med dommen bekræftes omfanget, således som det blev fastlagt i forbindelse med sag 44/84, af medlemsstaternes pligt til samarbejde med og loyal bistand over for Fællesskabet, således som den fremgår af EØF-Traktatens artikel 5.
The judgment confirms the scope, already set out in Case 44/84, of the duty of genuine cooperation and assistance which Member States owe the Community, as expressed in Article 5 of the EEC Treaty.
En medlemsstat kan ikke uden at overtræde denne artikel ensidigt vedtage foranstaltninger til ned­bringelse af de offentlige udgifter, såfremt de medfører, at Fællesskabets finansieringsordning og ordningen for fordeling af de finansielle byrder mellem medlemsstaterne lider skade.
Member States may not, without infringing this Article, adopt unilateral rationalization measures affecting public expenditure which have an adverse effect on the Community's system of financing and distributing the financial burden among the Member States.
Domstolen anfører endvidere, at Parlamentets beføjelser er et led i den institutionelle ligevægt, der er indført ved Traktaterne, og som er baseret på en fordeling af-beføjelserne, og at enhver afvigelse skal kunne sanktioneres.
The Court held (1) that, by its complete failure to take into consideration the situation of traders, such as Sofrimport, without demonstrating an overriding public interest, the Commission was in clear breach of Article 3(3) of the Regulation and (2) that the damage alleged by Sofrimport exceeded the limits of the economic risk inherent in operations in the industry concerned, given that this pro­vision was specifically intended to limit these risks in respect of goods in transit.
Det er derfor Domstolens opgave at sikre, at bestem­melserne i Traktaterne om den institutionelle ligevægt anvendes fuldt ud og ligesom de øvrige institutioner at sørge for, at Parlamentet ikke begrænses i sine beføjelser uden at kunne ind­lede en retsprocedure blandt dem, der omhand­les i Traktaten og som kan udøves med sikker­hed og effektivitet.
These circumstances meet the very strict condition laid down in the Court's judg­ments regarding non-contractual liability, particularly in the case of legislation invol­ving economic policy options.
Det er interessant at konstatere, at i den forlæg­gende sag var de pågældende foranstaltninger et led i en række af statsaftaler (vedrørende opret­telse af Europa-skolerne og deres drift), der ikke er en integrerende del af fællesskabsretten, selv om de har tilknytning til Fællesskabet og dettes institutioners funktion.
It is interesting to note that in this case the measures at issue were introduced in the context of a number of intergovernmental agreements on the establishment and oper­ation of the European Schools which, although they are connected with the Com­munity and the operation of its institutions, do not form an integral part of Community law.

Ifølge den britiske skibsfartslov af 1988 (Mer­chant Shipping Aet 1988) skal der for at bringe den såkaldte »quota hopping«-praksis til ophør oprettes et nyt register, hvori alle britiske fisker­fartøjer, der opfylder de nationalitetsbetingelser, der omhandles i artikel 14 i nævnte lov, skal optages.
• legal remedies are available not only to Par­liament (intervention, failure to act) but also to Member States, individuals (in certain circumstances) and the Commission, whose responsibility it is to ensure that Parlia­ment's prerogatives are respected and to bring actions for annulment if necessary to ensure the legality of acts of the institutions — the Court found in this case that the various remedies available under the Eura­tom and EEC Treaties, however effective and varied they might generally be, could prove to be ineffective or unreliable in cer­tain circumstances, particularly where the Commission considered an action for annulment to be ill-founded.

Reference: Judgment of 9 March 1978, Case 106/77 Administration des Finances de l'Etat ν Simmenthai [1978] ECR 629.
Rådets sjette direktiv (77/388/EØF) om harmo­nisering af medlemsstaternes lovgivning om omsæt­ningsafgifter — Det fælles merværdiafgiftssystem: Ensartet beregningsgrundlag — EFTL 145 af 13.6.1977
To put a stop to the practice known as 'quota hopping', the Merchant Shipping Act 1988 established a new register in which all British fishing vessels which met the nationality conditions laid down in Section 14 of the Act had to be registered.
Da flere fiskerivirksomheders skibe, der ikke opfylder i hvert fald en af de nye registreringsbetingelser, ville være afskåret fra retten til fiskeri fra 1. april 1989, har disse virksomheder, der almindeligvis kaldes »engelsk-spanske«, for de britiske domstole bestridt foreneligheden af del II i loven af 1988 med fællesskabsretten.
The Court went on to point out that Parlia­ment's prerogatives were one of the elements of the system of institutional bal­ance created by the Treaties and that there must be provision for challenging any act which disregarded them.
De har ligeledes anmodet om iværksættelse af mid­lertidige foranstaltninger for den periode, for hvilken der ikke er truffet endelig afgørelse om deres anmodning om retsbehandling.
Accordingly, it was for the Court to ensure that the pro­visions of the Treaties creating this insti­tutional balance were applied in full and to ensure that Parliament's prerogatives, like those of the other institutions, were pro­tected by access to a remedy under the Treaties which could be exercised in a reliable and effective manner.
Retstvisten vedrører den beregningsmetode, som de tyske myndigheder anvendte for i medfør af artikel 9, stk. 2, i forordning (EØF) nr. 2892/77 at etablere et fiktivt grundlag for egne momsindtægter i forbindelse med Deut­sche Bundesposts transaktioner i telekommuni­kationssektoren, der i overensstemmelse med sjette momsdirektiv er fritaget for moms.
Since their vessels failed to meet one or more of the new conditions of registration and therefore faced the prospect of no longer being allowed to engage in fishing from 1 April 1989, a number of fishing companies, commonly known as the 'Anglo-Spanish' companies, challenged the compatibility of Part II of the 1988 Act with Community law in the British courts; they also applied for interim relief to be granted until such time as judgment was given on their application for judicial review.
House of Lords forelagde herefter Domstolen det spørgsmål, om de britiske domstole, der over for et spørgsmål om fortolkning af fælles­skabsretten fandt, at den eneste hindring for, at de træffer afgørelse om foreløbige forholdsreg­ler, er en national retsregel, skal afvise anven­delsen af denne regel.
Having contrasted the 'procedural gap' — the absence of relief specifically recognized in the Treaties — and the 'fundamental interest' which attached to the maintenance of the institutional balance established in the Treaties, the Court concluded that an action for annulment brought by Parliament against an act of the Council or of the Commission was admissible provided that the action sought only to safeguard its pre­rogatives and that it was founded only on submissions based on the infringement of those prerogatives.
Der skal i den forbindelse mindes om den gamle common law-regel, hvor­efter der ikke kan anordnes foreløbige forholds­regler mod det offentlige og det derfor må formodes, at nationale love er i overensstem­melse med fællesskabsretten, sålænge der ikke er truffet anden afgørelse.
Provided these con­ditions were met, Parliament's right to bring an action for annulment was governed by the rules laid down by the Treaties for actions for annulment by other institutions.
Som retten bemærker er formålet med artikel 9, stk. 2, med henblik på at skabe et ensartet beregningsgrundlag for egne indtægter, at neu­tralisere virkningerne af den midlertidige frita­gelse af de i bilag F til sjette direktiv anførte transaktioner, idet den del af indtægterne, der svarer til de fritagne transaktioner, skal indreg­nes i beregningsgrundlaget.
Consequently, when, as in this case, Parlia­ment submitted that its prerogatives were infringed as a result of the Council's choice
De tyske myndigheder trækker derfor i mod­strid med den metode, der anvendes af samtlige andre medlemsstater, fra Bundesposts omsæt­ning det momsbeløb, Bundespost har betalt til sine leverandører, hvilket ifølge retten i tilfælde af beskatning af merværdien på alle produk­tionsstadier ingen indflydelse har på det nævnte beregningsgrundlag, som består af summen af nettoindkøbsværdien og Bundesposts nettoud­bytte, uanset hvilken momssats, der anvendes.
The case eventually reached the House of Lords, which asked the Court of Justice whether a national court which, in a case before it involving a question of interpret­ation of Community law, considered that the sole obstacle precluding it from granting interim relief was a rule of national law must set aside that rule.
Fællesskabsrettens gyldighed ville blive begrænset tilsvarende, såfremt en national retsregel kunne afskære den retsin­stans, der behandler en sag vedrørende fælles­skabsretten, fra at anordne foreløbige forholds­regler med henblik på at sikre den fulde virk­ning af den afgørelse, den skal træffe med
The rule in question was the old common law rule that no interim injunction can be granted against the Crown, i.e. against the Government, and there was in addition the presumption
