This required the Member States inter alia to take all the necessary measures to ensure that as from 1 July 1996 neither manufacturers nor importers established in the Community place on the market sun creams or bronzing products containing 1 mg/kg or more of psoralens and that, as from 1 July 1997, such products cannot be sold or otherwise supplied to the final consumer.
På det nye møde den 4. november 1991 bekræftede det videnskabelige udvalg sin udtalelse om, at den maksimale koncentration af 5-MOP i sololier burde begrænses til 1 mg/kg.
The applicants maintain that, by excluding them from the market, the Commission merely aided their competitors.
Kosmetikdirektivets artikel 9 bestemmer, at der nedsættes et udvalg for tilpasning af direktiverne om fjernelse af tekniske handelshindringer på området for kosmetiske midler til de tekniske fremskridt (herefter »tilpasningsudvalget«).
By judgment of the Tribunal de Commerce (Commercial Court), Créteil, of 6 July 1995, a procedure was initiated with a view to placing Bergaderm in liquidation. On 10 October 1995 Bergaderm formally entered into liquidation.
Ifølge afgørelsens artikel 2 har det videnskabelige udvalg til opgave at afgive udtalelse til Kommissionen om ethvert problem af videnskabelig og teknisk art på området for kosmetiske midler, herunder specielt om de stoffer, der anvendes til fremstilling af kosmetiske midler, og om betingelserne for anvendelse af de kosmetiske midler.
Contrary to the applicants' assertion, the Adaptation Committee did not, at its meeting on 1 June 1992, issue an opinion disapproving the Commission's proposal that the maximum level of psoralen in sun products should be restricted.
Faktiske omstændigheder
First plea: procedural defects
Produktet Bergasol er en soloUe, som ud over vegetabilsk olie og filtre indeholder bergamotessens.
As for the alleged infringement of the applicants' right to an inter partes procedure, it is clear from the facts that the applicants had ample occasion to express their views to the members of the Scientific Committee and the Commission, and that they were allowed to address the ad hoc group of experts.
Blandt de molekyler, som bergamotessensen er sammensat af, findes der »psoralener«, som også kaldes »furocoumariner«.
In the present case, the Commission disregarded the procedural rules in Article 10 of the Cosmetics Directive, since, instead of returning to the Council when the Adaptation Committee delivered an unfavourable opinion on 1 June 1992 concerning its proposal to restrict the maximum level of psoralens in sun products, it submitted the same proposal to the Adaptation Committee some years later.
En af disse er »bergapten«, som i videnskabelige kredse kendes under navnet 5-methoxypsoralen (herefter »5-MOP«).
In so doing, it also infringed the procedural rule non bis in idem.
Den 10. juU 1995 udstedte Kommissionen det attende direktiv 95/34/EF om tilpasning til den tekniske udvikling af büag II, III, VI og VII til direktiv 76/768 (herefter »tilpasningsdirektivet«).
Second plea: manifest error of assessment and breach of the principle of proportionality
Som følge heraf er der gennemført adskillige videnskabelige undersøgelser for at få verificeret, om stoffet eventuelt også kan være kræftfremkaldende som komponent i bergamotessens anvendt i et solbruningsmiddel.
There is nothing in the papers before the Court to support the conclusion that the Commission misunderstood the scientific arguments concerning the extent of the risk involved in the use of sun oil containing bergamot essence.
Ved afgørelse af 6. juU 1995, truffet af Tribunal de commerce de Créteil, blev der indledt en insolvensprocedure mod det sagsøgende selskab.
It failed to pass on to the members of the Adaptation Committee the scientific information which the applicants had submitted to the members of the Scientific Committee.
Den 10. oktober 1995 blev det bestemt, at det sagsøgende selskab skulle træde i likvidation.
Thus the fact that the applicants' right to an intra partes procedure had not been respected prevented the Adaptation Committee from reaching a position on an objective basis.
De undersøgelser, der er mest positive over for Bergasol, er dem, der er udført af professor Fitzpatrick, dermatologisk institut ved Harvard Medical School (USA).
The protection of public health is one of the objectives of the Cosmetics Directive and the Commission is not in a position to carry out the scientific assessments needed to further that objective.
Andre undersøgelser har derimod vist potentielle kræftfremkaldende virkninger af bergamotessens som komponent i sololie.
They argue that the restriction of 5MOP levels to 1 mg/kg in sun products is out of all proportion to the objective purportedly sought by the Commission, namely protection of the health of consumers.
På det videnskabelige udvalgs møde den 2. oktober 1990 anbefalede udvalget, at den maksimale koncentration af 5-MOP i soloUer skulle være 1 mg/kg.
Furthermore, where there is uncertainty as to the existence or extent of risks to the health of consumers, the institutions may take protective measures without having to wait until the reality

Third plea: misuse of powers and the seriousness of those risks become fully apparent (Case C-157'196 National Farmers'Union and Others [1998] ECR 1-0000, paragraph 63).
maksimale koncentration af psoralener i solprodukter, fremlagde det samme forslag for tilpasningsudvalget nogle år senere.
In particular, they have not shown that, during the legislative process at issue, the Commission's desired objective was other than the protection of public health.
Ved denne handlemåde har den Ugeledes tilsidesat det processuelle »non bis in idem«-princip.
Having regard to the above observations, the Commission's conduct and the measure adopted by it cannot be regarded as vitiated by a manifest error of assessment or as disproportionate.

Endvidere har den tilsidesat sagsøgernes ret til kontradiktion.
The Commission thus undertook to fund the project up to a maximum of LIT 676 742 000.
De videnskabelige oplysninger, som sagsøgerne gav til medlemmerne i det videnskabelige udvalg, har Kommissionen ikke givet videre til tilpasningsudvalget.
payment in respect of the project in question should reach it by 31 March 1995 at the latest, on the basis of Article 10 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 4256/88 of 19 December 1988 laying down provisions for implementing Regulation (EEC) No 2052/88 as regards the EAGGF guidance section, as amended by Council Regulation (EEC) No 2085/93 of 20 July 1993 (hereinafter 'Article 10').
På grund af denne overtrædelse af kontradiktionsprincippet har tilpasningsudvalget ikke kunnet tage stilling på objektivt grundlag.
That article reads as follows: 'Those portions of the sums committed for the granting of assistance in respect of projects decided on by the Commission before 1 January 1989 which have not been the subject of a request for final payment by 31 March 1995 shall be automatically
Der er intet oplyst i sagen, der giver grundlag for at antage, at Kommissionen har haft en fejlagtig opfattelse af det videnskabelige spørgsmål, som sagens drejede sig om, nemlig at vurdere omfanget af den risiko, der er forbundet med brug af en soloUe, som delvis er fremstillet af bergamotessens.
By a letter dated 21 November 1994, signed by the director of the European Agricultural Guidance and Guarantee Fund (EAGGF) and addressed to the President of the Italian Council of Ministers and the Region of Tuscany, the Commission stated that the request for final
Andet anbringende vedrørende et åbenbart fejlagtigt skøn og en tilsidesættelse af proportionalitetsprincippet
On 31 March 1995, the Region of Tuscany sent a letter to the Commission seeking payment of the final balance. That letter was received by the Commission on 4 April 1995.
Sagsøgerne har gjort gældende, at Kommissionen automatisk er nået frem til nogle konklusioner om Bergasol, der ikke står i rimeligt forhold til grundlaget, og den har truffet foranstaltninger uden at have fremskaffet eUer opnået videnskabeligt bevis for, at dette var nødvendigt for at beskytte forbrugernes sundhed.
However, the applicant is specifically not challenging the existence of an absolute timelimit but, rather, the Commission's interpretation of it in concluding that it applied to the deadline for receipt of the request for final payment.
Det bemærkes, at beskyttelsen af den offenthge sundhed er ét af kosmetikdirektivets formål, og at Kommissionen ikke er i stand til selv at foretage de videnskabelige vurderinger, som skal tjene dette formål.
The Commission submits, however, that it had informed the applicant of its interpretation of Article 10, in its letter of 21 November 1994.
Det videnskabelige udvalg har netop til opgave at bistå fællesskabsmyndighederne i videnskabelige og tekniske spørgsmål, for at disse med fuld kendskab hertil kan træffe afgørelse om de nødvendige tilpasningsforanstaltninger.
If the applicant did not agree with that interpretation, it should have challenged that letter.
De har gjort gældende, at begrænsningen af koncentrationen af 5-MOP i solprodukter til 1 mg/kg ikke står i et rimeligt forhold til det mål, som Kommissionen hævder at have forfulgt, nemlig beskyttelsen af forbrugernes sundhed.
The Commission replied by letter of 31 January 1997, which was received by the applicant on 7 February 1997. It recalled that, in accordance with its letter of 21 November 1994, it should have received the request for final payment on 31 March 1995 at the latest.
Ifølge sagsøgerne har Kommissionen kun hjulpet det sagsøgende selskabs konkurrenter ved at udelukke dette fra markedet.
That rule relates only to the final date for sending requests and not the final date for receipt of those requests by the Commission.
Når der er usikkerhed med hensyn til, om og i givet fald i hvilket omfang der er risiko for forbrugernes sundhed, må institutionerne i øvrigt kunne træffe beskyttelsesforanstaltninger uden at afvente, at det fuldt ud påvises, at der er en risiko, og hvilket omfang denne har.
First, such an interpretation ensures equal treatment for potential applicants, since it ensures that the timelimit is the same, irrespective of the geographical distance of the recipients and the time necessary for transmission.
Det første anbringende vedrørende procedurefejl
Furthermore, it appears that in all essential respects the arguments raised by the Commission
Når der henses til ovenstående forhold, kan Kommissionens handlemåde og den foranstaltning, den har truffet, ikke anses for at være behæftet med et åbenbart fejlskøn eUer for ikke at stå i rimeligt forhold til det mål, som forfølges.
Second, in view of the radical consequences, under Article 10, of exceeding the timelimit laid down by law, legal certainty requires that reference be made to the date on which the request is sent, to the advantage of the potential recipients; potential recipients can determine only the date on which the request is sent, of which they can provide proof, and not the time taken to transmit that request.
I modsætning til hvad der er anført af sagsøgerne, fremsatte tilpasningsudvalget ikke på sit møde den 12. juni 1992 en negativ udtalelse om Kommissionens forslag om at begrænse den maksimale koncentration af psoralener i solprodukter.

It produced a certificate of origin for that purpose issued by the South Korean authorities.

The Court therefore concludes that, in view of all the legal rules governing the subject, the Commission failed to give the reasons for its decision.

that its action had become devoid of purpose and there was no further need to adjudicate thereon.
Kommissionen forpligtede sig herved til at finansiere projektet med højst 676 742 000 LIT.
By application lodged at the Court Registry on 27 March 1997, the applicant brought the present action for the annulment of the contested decisions.
Denne artikel har følgende ordlyd: »De delbeløb, der er disponeret over som støtte til projekter, som Kommissionen har truffet beslutning om inden den 1. januar 1989, og som der ikke er anmodet om endeUg betaling af inden den 31. marts 1995, frigøres automatisk af Kommissionen senest den 30. september 1995 ...«
On 9 September 1994, the DAFSE communicated to the applicant the decisions it had taken following the claims for payment of the balance, and requested the applicant to repay to it, within 30 days, a total of ESC 62 856 998. On 10 October 1994, the applicant brought an action before the Tribunal Administrativo de Círculo de Lisboa (Lisbon Administrative Circuit Court) challenging that repayment order, arguing in particular that any claim by the DAFSE in that respect was time-barred.

Ved skrivelse af 21. november 1994, der var underskrevet af direktøren for Den Europæiske Udviklings- og Garantifond for Landbruget (EUGFL) og stilet til den italienske ministerpræsident og Regione Toscana, oplyste Kommissionen, at ansøgningen om endeUg betaling for det pågældende projekt måtte være den i hænde senest den 31. marts 1995.
On 25 May 1995, counsel for the applicant asked the DAFSE to send him a certificate or a certified true copy of the decision approving the claim for payment of the balance relating to File No 880249 P3. The applicant has, however, not received any reply to that letter.
Den henviste herved til artikel 10 i Rådets forordning (EØF) nr. 4256/88 af 19. december 1988 om
The applicant argues that the DAFSE exceeded the bounds of the competence allocated to it in the matter by Article 5(4) of Regulation No 2950/83 and Article 2(l)(d) of Portuguese Decree-Law No 37/91.
Disse argumenter har nemlig til formål at godtgøre, at fristreglen i nævnte artikel 10 har karakter af en ufravigelig bestemmelse.
The nature and scope of factual and accounting certification
Sagsøgeren har imidlertid netop ikke bestridt, at der er tale om en præklusiv frist, men har derimod gjort indsigelse mod Kommissionens fortolkning af fristbestemmelsen og mener, at fristen gjaldt modtagelsen i Kommissionen af anmodningen om endeUg betaling.
First part of the plea and accounting certification that, in carrying out certain supplementary enquiries and a number of checks, the DAFSE did not exceeded the bounds of the competence allocated by Community legislation to the Member States in the management of the process for examining an application for payment of the balance of an ESF aid.
Kommissionen besvarede denne skrivelse ved skrivelse af 31. januar 1997, som sagsøgeren modtog den 7. februar 1997.
On the contrary, its attitude shows that it performed the obligations which that legislation imposes on it, particularly in Article 7 of Decision 83/673.
Den nævnte deri, at anmodningen om endeUg betaling som nævnt i dens skrivelse af 21. november 1994 skulle have været den i hænde senest den 31. marts 1995.
The applicant cannot claim that the DAFSE was out of time in carrying out the acts of verification referred to in its letter of 9 September 1994.
Imidlertid havde den i det foreUggende tilfælde først modtaget sagsøgerens skrivelse af 31. marts 1995 den 4. april 1995, mens de regnskabsdokumenter, ministeriet havde fremsendt, ikke var kommet frem før den 29. maj 1995.
First, those acts cannot be regarded as the manifestation of a second factual and accounting certification for the purposes of Article 5(4) of Regulation No 2950/83.
Den anførte afslutningsvis, at de tilsvarende beløb i henhold til nævnte artikel 10 var blevet frigjort af Kommissionen i embeds medfør den 30. september 1995.
It is in reality a case of the competent authorities of the Portuguese Republic carrying out the tasks which they are required to carry out in the context of implementing ESF aids, pursuant to Article 2(2) of Decision 83/516 and Article 7 of Decision 83/673.
Kommissionen gør imidlertid gældende, at den allerede i sin skrivelse af 21. november 1994 havde gjort sagsøgeren bekendt med sin fortolkning af nævnte artikel 10. Såfremt der ikke var enighed om fortolkningen, måtte sagsøgeren have bestridt denne skrivelse.
Moreover, since the measures taken by the DAFSE after the factual and accounting certification of 30 October 1989 cannot be assimilated to a certification within the meaning of Article 5(4) of Regulation No 2950/83, it cannot be maintained that on that occasion it exceeded the bounds of its competence in certification matters.
Sagsøgeren har anført, at nævnte artikel 10 vedrører de beløb, der er disponeret over, men som ikke har været genstand for en anmodning om endeUg betaling før den 31. marts 1995.
Contrary to what the applicant maintains, the irregularities impugned in the contested decisions were not established on the basis of a criterion which did not appear amongst the conditions for grant to which payment of those aids was subject.
Bestemmelsen tager kun sigte på sidste dato for fremsendelse af betalingsanmodningerae, men ikke på den dato, hvor disse anmodninger kommer frem til Kommissionen.
On the other hand, application of the criterion of 'reasonableness' and 'sound financial management', which consists simply of verifying whether the expenses claimed by a beneficiary and which it paid take appropriate account of the services in respect of which they were incurred, falls perfectly within the context of the control which the Member State is required to carry out beyond mere factual and accounting certification, in accordance with Article 7 of Decision 83/673, where it suspects the existence of irregularities, fraudulent or otherwise.
Retten finder, at den i nævnte artikel 10 fastsatte fristdato skal forstås som datoen for en anmodnings afsendelse.
The second plea, alleging infringement of Article 190 of the Treaty
Denne fortolkning giver nemlig for det første sikkerhed for ligebehandling af de mulige ansøgere, idet den giver sikkerhed for samme fristdato, uanset hvor modtagerne befinder sig, og uanset den tid, der kræves til forsendelsen.
Finally, both as regards the Member State's obligation to notify the Commission where it suspects the existence of certain irregularities and as regards the competence of the Commission to reduce an ESF aid, no particular timelimit has been laid down in Community legislation.
For det andet er det af retssikkerhedsgrunde i betragtning af de indgribende følger, som en overskridelse af den i nævnte artikel 10 fastsatte frist har, nødvendigt til fordel for de mulige
Therefore, even if it were held to be necessary to perform that obligation and exercise that power within a reasonable period, it would be sufficient to find that, in this case, the applicant has not claimed that the length of the periods which elapsed between the various measures taken by the DAFSE and the Commission was unreasonable, and thus adversely affected the legality of the contested decisions as such, even though the applicant mentions those various periods.
Endvidere ses en stillingtagen til sagsøgerens anbringende ikke i det væsentlige at være mulig på grundlag af de af Kommissionen fremførte argumenter.
The applicant claims that the application by DAFSE of the criterion of 'reasonableness' and 'sound financial management' infringes the duty to state reasons under Article 190 of the Treaty, since that criterion was not first defined and was not used at the time of the first certification. The applicant argues that the DAFSE altered the
støttemodtagere at lægge til grund, at der er tale om datoen for anmodningens afsendelse.
The fourth plea, alleging infringement of the applicant's defence rights
De muUge støttemodtagere er nemlig kun herrer over datoen for anmodningens afsendelse, som de kan skaffe sig bevis for, men ikke over den tid, som medgår til fremsendelsen af denne anmodning.
The applicant complains of an infringement of its defence rights, arising, on the one hand, from the application without prior notification of the criterion of 'reasonableness' and 'sound financial management' and, on the other, from the fact that it was not heard by the Commission before the latter adopted the contested decisions.
Muligheden for, at Kommissionen således først i dagene efter fristens udløb modtager støttemodtagernes anmodninger, kan ikke antages at være til skade for den effektive virkning af en præklusiv frist og nødvendigheden af en korrekt forvaltning af Fællesskabets midler.
In this case, it should be recalled at the outset that, in so far as the measures taken by the DAFSE in 1994 do not constitute a factual and accounting certification for the purposes of Article 5(4) of Regulation No 2950/83, application by the DAFSE of a criterion of 'reasonableness' and 'sound financial management' cannot have altered the rules on certification.
