Those questions were raised in proceedings between Mr Pontillo, a tobacco producer, and the tobacco processing undertaking Donatab Sri, established in Caserta (hereinafter 'Donatab'), concerning the repercussions for Mr Pontillo of the reimbursement by Donatab, following a finding by the Commission that, for the 1991 harvest, the maximum guaranteed quantity (hereinafter 'MGQ') of leaf tobacco of the Burley I variety had been exceeded, of part of the premium referred to in Article 3 of Regulation (EEC) No 727/70 of the Council of 21 April 1970 on the common organisation of the market in raw tobacco.

The national court observes that the ruling now sought again concerns the validity of the contested regulation as regards the 1991 Burley I tobacco harvest but that, on this occasion, it relates not to the fixing of the MGQ but to the reduction of the intervention price and of the processing premium for that variety of tobacco.
I dommen af 5. oktoter "1994 fastslog Domstolen, at gennemgangSQ si dei stillede spørgsmål üiïet
The national court stayed proceedings pending a preliminary ruling from the Court of Justice on the following questions:
Antonio Pontillo driver en landbrugsvirksomhed i Caserta-provinscn.
Mr Pontillo manages an agricultural undertaking in the Province of Caserta.
Han solgte sin høst af tobak af sorten Burley I for 1991høsten til Donatab, soin herefter ansøgte om fra det kompetente interventionsorgan, Azienda di Stato per gli Interventi sul Mercato Agricolo - Settore tabacco (det statslige interventionsorgan for landbrug, herefter »AIMA«), og fik tilkendt en forskudsbetaling - mod sikkerhedsstillelse - af
He sold his 1991 crop of Burley I tobacco to Donatab, which applied for and obtained from the competent intervention agency, the Azienda di Stato per gli Interventi nel Mercato Agricolo — Settore Tabacco (hereinafter 'the AIMA'), advance payment of the premium referred to in Article 3 of Regulation No 727/70, against lodgment of a security.
De erhvervsdrivende kan ikke påberåbe sig en velerhvervet ret til bevarelse af en fordel, som for disse virksomheder er resultatet af indførelsen af den fælles markedsordning, og som de har haft fordel af på et givet tidspunkt.
the prices and premiums for such varieties, expressly provided for the possibility of a reduction in those prices and premiums, followed, if necessary by a second reduction, subject to a ceiling of 15%, in the event of the MGQ being exceeded.
Den nationale retsinstans har bemærket, at nærværende præjudicielle forelæggelse også vedrører spørgsmålet om gyldigheden af den omtvistede forordning med hensyn til 1991høsten for tobak af sorten Burley I, men at forelæggelsen denne gang ikke drejer sig om fastsættelsen af MG, men om nedsættelsen af interventionsprisen ogforarbejdningspræmien for denne tobakssort.
Is the fact that Regulation No 1738/91 fails to give any reasons at all, whether express or implied, for its provisions concerning Burley I tobacco — which was more seriously affected than other tobacco varieties even though excess production of those varieties had been even higher — open to criticism in that it constitutes a breach of essential procedural requirements?'
Det følger af ovenstående, at princippet om den berettigede forventning ikke er blevet tilsidesat, eftersom de berørte erhvervsdrivende ikke med rimelighed kunne regne med, at et vist niveau for de pågældende priser og præmier ville blive opretholdt.
It is clear from the foregoing that the principle of the protection of legitimate expectations has not been infringed, since the traders concerned were not entitled to expect the prices and premium in question to be maintained at a particular level.
»1) Kan Rådets forordning (EØF) nr. 1738/91 ud fra princippet om beskyttelse af den berettigede forventning og den bærende tanke bag kvoteordningen anses for gyldig, for så vidt som der ved forordningen blev gennemført en uventet og uforudset nedsættelse af priser og præmier for italiensk Burley-tobak på et så fremskredent tidspunkt af høståret, at selv de mest påpasselige og kyndige producenter ikke længere havde nogen handlingsmargen?
The preamble to the contested regulation clearly discloses the criteria applied when the prices and premiums were fixed in the raw tobacco sector for the 1991 harvest.
I den foreliggende sag indeholder den omtvistede forordnings præambel en klar angivelse af de kriterier, der har fundet anvendelse ved fastsættelsen af priserne og præmierne for råtobak for 1991-høsten.
It must be borne in mind at the. outset that whilst the protection of legitimate expectations is one of the fundamental principles of the Community, traders cannot have a legitimate expectation that an existing situation which is capable of being altered by the Community institutions in the exercise of their discretionary power will be maintained; this is particularly true in an area such as the common organisation of the markets whose purpose involves constant adjustments to meet changes in the economic situation.
Er den omstændighed, at bestemmelserne om tobakssorten Burley i forordning nr. 1738/91 hverken er forsynet med en direkte eller indirekte begrundelse, og at de er strengere end dem, der vedrører de øvrige tobakssorter, for hvilke der endog var registreret endnu højere produktionsoverskud, kritisabel som en tilsidesættelse af væsentlige formforskrifter?«
Traders cannot claim a vested right to the maintenance of an advantage which they derive from the establishment of the common organisation of the markets and which they enjoyed at a given time.
Således følger det af den første betragtning i præamblen, at der ved fastsættelsen af priserne for råtobak bør tages hensyn til målsætningerne for den fælles landbrugspolitik, som bl.a. har til formål at sikre landbrugsbefolkningen en rimelig levestandard, at sikre forsyningerne og at sikre forbrugerne rimelige priser på landbrugsvarer.
Thus, according to the first recital in the preamble, when the prices for raw tobacco are fixed, account should be taken of the objectives of the common agricultural policy which are, in particular, to ensure a fair standard of living for the agricultural community, to assure the availability of supplies and to ensure that supplies reach consumers at reasonable prices.
Det bestemmes i forordningens anden betragtning, at målpriserne og interventionspriserne for tobak i blade bør fastsættes efter de kriterier, der er nævnt i artikel 2, stk. 2, i forordning (EØF) nr. 727/70, med henblik på at fremme en produktionsudvikling i retning af en omlægning af avlen til de sorter, der er mest efterspurgte og mest konkurrencedygtige samt mindst sundhedsfarlige.
The second recital makes it clear that the norm and intervention prices must be fixed in accordance with the criteria laid down in Article 2(2) of Regulation (EEC) No 727/70 in order to
For så vidt angår den præmie, der ydes til købere af tobak, som produceres i Fællesskabet, følger det af præamblens syvende betragtning, at den
That is particularly so in a case such as this in which the applicable Community rules, namely Regulation No 727/70, which required the Council to determine each year, having regard in particular to market developments and to the harmfulness of the different varieties of tobacco,
har lil formål al gøre del muligt lor disse al betale producenterne af tobak i blade en pris, som ligger på samme niveau som målprisen, under hensyntagen til prisudviklingen på verdensmarkedet og til det prisniveau, som er en følge af forholdet mellem udbud og efterspørgsel på Fællesskabets marked.
encourage producers to convert to the cultivation of those varieties which are most in demand and most competitive as well as being the least harmful to health.
lil producenter af andre tobakssorter, skal det bemærkes, at det generelle fællesskabsretlige lighedsprincip, som det i EF-traktatens artikel 40, stk. 3, knæsatte princip om forbud mod forskelsbehandling er en konkret udmøntning af, indebærer, at ensartede situationer ikke må behandles forskelligt, og at forskellige situationer ikke må behandles ens, medmindre en forskellig behandling er objektivt begrundet.
If, as the plaintiff in the main proceedings maintains, the national court seeks also to ascertain, by its second question, whether the producers of Burley I tobacco have received less favourable treatment than the producers of other varieties of tobacco, it must be pointed out that, by virtue of the general principle of equal treatment in Community law, of which the prohibition of discrimination laid down in Article 40(3) of the EC Treaty is a specific expression, comparable situations must not be treated differently and different situations must not be treated in the same way unless such treatment is objectively justified.
Under disse omstændigheder er begrundelsen for den omtvistede forordning tilstrækkelig klar til, at de berørte kan gøre sig bekendt med baggrunden for den trufne foranstaltning, og Domstolen kan udøve sin kontrol.
As regards the premiums granted to the purchasers of Community tobacco, it is clear from the seventh recital that they are designed to enable the producers of leaf tobacco to be paid a price which is at the level of the norm price, account being taken of the trend in world market prices, and of the level of prices established by the interaction of supply and demand on the Community market.
Den opfylder således kravene i traktatens artikel 190.
In those circumstances, the statement of the reasons on which the contested regulation is based must be considered to be sufficiently precise to enable the persons concerned to ascertain the reasons for it and to enable the Court to exercise judicial review; it therefore meets the requirements laid down in Article 190 of the Treaty.
Virkeliggørelsen af de formål, som forfølges med pris- og præmieordningen, og som er beskrevet i nærværende doms præmis 38 og 39, og navnlig omlægningen af avlen til de sorter, der er mest efterspurgte og mest konkurrencedygtige samt mindst sundhedsfarlige, stiller nødvendigvis krav om, at der træffes forskellige foranstaltninger afhængig af de pågældende sorter.
The attainment of the objectives pursued by the system of prices and premiums, which are set out in paragraphs 38 and 39 of this judgment, in particular the orientation of tobacco production towards the varieties most in demand, most competitive and the least harmful to health, necessarily involves the adoption of measures which differ according to the varieties in question.

(Failure by a Member State to fulfil obligations — Public works contracts — Directives 89/440/EEC and 93/37/EEC — Failure to publish a contract notice — Application of negotiated procedure without justification) (Sixth Chamber)
Det hedder i domskonklusionen:
By application lodged at the Registry of the Court on 2 October 1996 the Commission of the European Communities brought an action for a declaration that:
•1) Kongeriget Belgien har ikke opfyldt de forpligtelser, der påhviler det i henhold til Rådets direktiv 711305/EØF af 26. juli 1971 om samordning af fremgangsmåderne med hensyn til indgåelse af off endige bygge- og anlægskontrakter, som ændret ved Rådets direktiv 89/440/EØF af 18. juli 1989, og Rådets direktiv 93/37/EØF af 14. juni 1993 om samordning af fremgangsmåderne med hensyn til indgåelse af offentlige bygge- og anlægskontrakter, nærmere bestemt artikel 7 og 11, stk. 2 og 9, i direktiv 93/37, idet det ikke i EF-Tidende har offentliggjort en udbudsbekendtgørelse vedrørende det samlede projekt til opførelse af en bygning til Vlaamse Raad eller de enkelte delarbejder heri og idet det ikke har frugt den fremgangsmåde for tildeling af kontrakter, der erforeskrevet i disse direktiver, og navnlig uberettiget har tildelt delarbejde nr. 4 ved udbud efter forhandling.
­ by failing to apply the award procedures laid down in Council Directive 89/440/EEC of 18 July 1989, amending Directive 71/305/EEC and in Council Directive 93/37/EEC of 14 June 1993 and, more specifically, by having awarded Lot No 4 by negotiated procedure without justification,
Kongeriget Belgien betaler sagens omkostninger.«
The action the Kingdom of Belgium has failed to fulfil its obligations under those directives and, more specifically, Articles 7 and 11 of Directive 93/37.
Generaladvokat S. Alber fremsatte forslag til afgørelse i retsmødet (Sjette Afdeling) den 19. marts 1998.
In order to resolve the dispute now before the Court, it is first necessary to consider whether the Vlaamse Raad is a contracting authority within the meaning of Article 1(b) of Directive 71/305 as amended by Article 1(1) of Directive 89/440, and within the meaning of Article 1(b) of Directive 93/37.
»1) Det fastslås, at Kongeriget Belgien ikke har overholdt de forpligtelser, der påhviler det i henhold til direktiv 89/440/EØF og 93/37/EØF, navnlig artikel 7 og 11 i direktiv 93/37/EØF, idet det hverken for det samlede projekt for en bygning til Vlaamse Raad eller for dele af dette projekt har fulgt de nævnte direktivers bestemmelser for udbud og offentliggørelse.
The term 'the State' referred to by that provision necessarily encompasses all the bodies which exercise legislative, executive and judicial powers. The same is true of the bodies which, in a federal state, exercise those powers at federal level.
17. september 1998 fra de nationale EF-traktatens bestemmelser, der kræver godkendelse artikel 30«
Constitution prevented the legislative chambers, and thus the Vlaamse Raad, from being subject to Ministerial authority.
Ved dom afsagt den 21. oktober 1996 har Tribunal correctionnel de Charleroi forelagt Domstolen et præjudicielt spørgsmål vedrørende fortolkningen af EF-traktatens artikel 30.
First, it should be pointed out that this plea, based on national law, affects neither the finding that the Vlaamse Raad constitutes a contracting authority nor the resulting obligation to comply with the provisions of those directives as regards publication and award procedures.
plantebeskyttelsesmiddel, før det markedsføres i den pågældende stat, når midlet allerede er blevet godkendt af de kompetente myndigheder i en anden medlemsstat.
Furthermore, in Case 31/87 Beentjes [1988] ECR 4635, paragraphs 11 to 13, the Court, after stating that the term 'the State', within the meaning of Article 1(b) of Directive 71/305 should be interpreted in functional terms, held that a local land consolidation committee fell within that definition notwithstanding the fact that it was not an integral part of the State administration in formal terms.
Indledningsvis bemærkes det, at de i det forelagte spørgsmål omhandlede produkter ikke er blevet præcist beskrevet af den forelæggende ret. Det fremgår af hovedsagen, at der er tale om produkter af forskellige mærker.
It would be inconsistent to hold that a legislative body does not fall within the definition of the State for the purposes of the Community directives on public works contracts, when a body which is not an integral part of the State administration in formal terms has been held to fall within that definition for the purposes of the application of one of those directives.
Spørgsmålet er blevet rejst under en straffesag, hvorunder Jean Harpegnies, der er landmand, er liliali for at have markedsført plantebeskyttelsesprodukter, der ikke forinden var godkendt, og for at have fremstillet, indført elleremballeret plantebeskyttelsesprodukter uden forudgående godkendelse fra landbrugsministeren.
It follows that a legislative body such as the Vlaamse Raad must be held as falling within the definition of the State and thus constituting a contracting authority within the meaning of Article 1(b) of Directive 71/305 as amended by Article 1(1) of Directive 89/440, and within the meaning of Article 1(b) of Directive 93/37.
Da der savnes nøjagtige oplysninger om, hvilken type produkt det i hovedsagen omhandlede produkt tilhører, må spørgsmålet besvares ud fra den antagelse, at tvisten i hovedsagen vedrører såvel pesticider som biocidholdige produkter.
At the hearing, however, the Belgian Government referred to Article 4 of Directive 93/37 in support of a submission that, under certain circumstances, a Member State could legitimately dispense with the obligations laid down in that directive.
Rådets direktiv 91/414/EØF af 15. juli 1991 om markedsføring af plantebeskyttelsesmidler (herefter »direktivet«), der er blevet ændret flere gange, har navnlig til formål at indføre ensartede regler vedrørende forudsætningerne og procedurerne for godkendelse af plantebeskyttelsesmidler og at beskytte mennesker, dyr og miljøet mod de risici og farer, der kan være følgen af en ukontrolleret anvendelse af disse midler. Direktivet har desuden lil formål at fjerne hindringer for den fri handel med plantebeskyttelsesmidler.
Quite apart from the question of the belated nature of that plea, which the Belgian Government raised for the first time at the hearing without submitting any valid reason to explain the delay, it should be observed that the Belgian Government has not put forward anything to show that the works contracts put out to tender by the Vlaamse Raad came within one of the situations referred to in Article 4.
Hvad først pesticider angår bemærkes det, at direktivet, der finder anvendelse på disse produkter, bl.a. har til formål at indføre ensartede regler vedrørende forudsætningerne og procedurerne for godkendelse af plantebeskyttelsesmidler.
According to settled case-law, a Member State cannot rely on provisions, practices or circumstances existing in its internal legal order in order to justify its failure to comply with the obligations and time-limits laid down by a directive.
For at virkeliggøre dette mål skal medlemsstaterne i henhold til direktivets artikel 3, stk. 1, sørge for, at plantebeskyttelsesmidler, der omfattes af direktivet, kun kan markedsføres og anvendes på deres område, hvis de er officielt godkendt af den i den forbindelse kompetente myndighed. Bestemmelserne om sådan godkendelse findes navnlig i direktivets artikel 4, hvorefter medlemsstaterne skal drage omsorg for, at plantebeskyttelsesmidler kun kan godkendes, når visse betingelser er opfyldt.
Declares that, by failing to publish a contract notice in the Official Journal of the European Communities bom for the overall project and for each of the lots relating to the construction of the premises of the Vlaamse Raad, and by failing to apply the award procedures laid down in Council Directive 71/305/EEC of 26 July 1971 concerning the coordination of procedures for the award of public works contracts, as amended by Council Directive 89/440IEEC of 18 July 1989, and Council Directive 93/37/EEC of 14 June 1993 concerning the coordination of procedures for the award of public works contracts and, more specifically, by having awarded lot No 4 by negotiated procedure without justification, the Kingdom of Belgium has failed to fulfil its obligations under those directives and, more specifically, under Articles 7 and 11(2) and (9) of Directive 93/37;
Det må undersøges, om en lovgivning som den i hovedsagen omhandlede kan være begrundet efter bestemmelserne i traktatens artikel 36.
Advocate General S. Alber delivered his Opinion at the sitting of the Sixth Chamber on 19 March 1998.
•1) Rådets direktiv 91/414/EØF af 15. juli 1991 om markedsføring af plantebeskyttelsesmidler stiller krav om, at der indhentes godkendelse i henhold til artikel 4 eller 8 hos den kompetente myndighed i hver medlemsstat, hvor et af direktivet af omfattet pesticid markedsføres.
'(1) Declare that by failing to comply with the requirements concerning tendering procedures and publication both for the award of the overall project and for each of the lots relating to the construction of the premises of the Vlaamse Raad, the Kingdom of Belgium has failed to fulfil its obligations under Directive 89/440/EEC of 18 July 1989, amending Directive 71/305/EEC concerning the coordination of procedures for the award of public works contracts, and Council Directive 93/37/EEC of 14 June 1993 concerning the coordination of procedures for the award of public works contracts and, more specifically, Articles 7 and 11 of Directive 93/37.
