Also, in its judgment of 10 February 2000 in Joined Cases T-32198 and T-41l98Netherlands Antilles v Commission (under appeal, Case C-I42100 P), the Courtconfirmed that an infra-State entity cannot be regarded as having no interest inbringing proceedings for annulment of regulations merely because the MemberState has an independent right of action under the second paragraph of Article I73of the Treaty.

ln Salamander and Others v Parliament and Council, cited above, the Courtfound that the legal situation of businesses was not directly affected.

It held that Directive 98143,whose legatity the applicants contested, could not of itselfimpose obligations on an individual and could therefore not be relied on as suchagainst an individual.
II, s. 1733).I disse sager nedlagde sagsogerne pästand om annullation af en del afbetragtningerne til Kommissionens beslutning 971540/EF af 22. januar 1997om at erklrere en fusion forenelig med frellesmarkedet og EOS-aftalensfunktion (EFT L 218, s. 15).
Accordingly, a directive which, as in the case in point,required the Member States to impose obligations on businesses was not of itself,before the adoption of the national transposition measures and independently ofthem, such as to affect directly the legal situation of those businesses.
Kommissionen havde i de to sager gjort enformalitetsindsigelse geldende, som blev taget til folge af Retten.
The Courtalso held that the directive left the Member States a power of assessmenr, suchthat the applicants could not be directly concerned by it.
Indledningsvis fandt Retten, at det forhold, at den anfregtede beslutning gär udpä, at den anmeldtetransaktion erkleres for forenelig med frellesmarkedet, ogsäledes i princippet ikke er bebyrdende for sagsogerne, der havde anmeldtfusionen, ikke i sig selv fritager Retten for at undersoge, om de i beslutningenanfegtede konstateringer har bindende retsvirkninger, som kan bersresagsogernesinteresser.
On the other hand, rn ACAV and Others v Council, cited above, it was on theground of lack of individual concern that the Court dismissed as inadmissible an action brought by albacoretuna fishermen established on Ile-d'Yeu (France) forthe annulment of Regulation (EC) No 1239198,4 inasmuch as it provides that,from I January2002, no vesselmay keepon board, or use for fishing, drift-netsintended for the captureof certain species,including albacore.
Retten undersogte säledes for det forste, om en konstatering af, at derforeligger en dominerende stilling, har bindende retsvirkninger.
The Court then considered whether it could be concluded from certaincircumstances that the regulation, despite its general scope, was of individualconcern to the applicants.
Den fandt, atselv om en konstatering af en dominerende stilling i den anfregtede beslutning kan have indflydelse pä den bersrte virksomheds fremtidige politik oghandelsstrategi, er den i sig selv uden bindende retsvirkninger, hvorforsagssgerne ikke kan anhgge sag til provelse af den pägreldende konstatering.Retten näede frem til dette resultat efter at have fastsläet, at en sädankonstatering hviler pä en undersogelse af markedsstrukturenog af denkonkurrence, der hersker pä markedet pä tidspunktet for Kommissionensvedtagelse af den enkelte beslutning.
It found that the regulation was of concern to themonly in their objective capacity as albacore fishermen using a certain fishingtechnique in a specific area, in the same way as it was of concern to any otheroperator in the same situation, and that there was no concreteindication in theregulation that the measures in question were adopted specifically taking accountof their situation.
Den adfrerd, som en virksomhed, der erblevet anset for at have en dominerende stilling, herefter vil vrerenodsaget tilat udvise for at undgä en eventuel overtrredelse af traktatens artikel 86 (nuartikel 82 EF), aflraenger säledes af en rrekke faktorer, der til enhver tidafspejler konkurrencevilkärene pä markedet.
In response to argumentsgoing to the serious economic impactwhich the regulation had on the applicants' business, the Court pointed out thatthe fact that a legislative measure could have specific effects which differed
Retten fastslog tillige, at det forhold,at Kommissionen i forbindelse med en sädan eventuel beslutning vil kunneblive pävirket af konstateringen, ikke i sig selv indebaerer, at den pägreldendekonstatering har bindende retsvirkninger.
First,although the contested regulations were, by their nature, of general applicationand did not constitute decisions within the meaning of Article 189 of the ECTreaty (now Article 249 EC), the applicant was individually concerned by theminasmuch as the Commission, when envisaging their adoption, was obliged to takeaccountof the applicant's particular situation, by virtue of Article 109(2) of Decision 9ll482lEEC.
Den pägeldende virksomhed er ikkeafskäret fta a I anlregge annullationssogsmäl ved Retten til provelse af eneventuel beslutning, hvorved Kommissionen mätte fastsläet misbrug.
7 Second, the appticantwas directly concerned by thecontested regulations.
Det forhold, at en national domstol under direkte anvendelse af traktatensartikel 86 i lyset af Kommissionensbeslutningspraksis kan nä frem til sammekonstatering af, at den pägeldende virksomhed har en dominerende stilling,er heller ikke ensbetydende med, at den omtvistede konstatering har bindenderetsvirkninger, idet en national domstol, der skal tage stilling til handlingerforetaget efter vedtagelsen af den anfregtede beslutning i forbindelse med enfor den forelagt tvist, ikke er afskäret fra at konkludere,at virksomheden ikkelengere har en dominerende stilling.
The Court stated with regard to Regulation No 2352197that it contained comprehensive rules leavingno latitudeto the authorities of the Member States,since it regulated in a binding manner the machinery for thesubmission and issue of licences for the import of rice from the OCTs andauthorised the Commission to suspendtheir issue if a quota determinedby it wasexceeded or there were serious disturbances of the market.
For det andet undersogte Retten, offi et tilsagn, som virksomheden havde givetom at opgive en vis handelsmressig adfrerd, og som fremgik af beslutningen,sagen vedrorte, kunne anfregtes under et annullationssogsmäl.Dette ertilfreldet, hvis en undersogelse af tilsagnetsindhold viser, at det skal havebindende retsvirkninger.
In one of the cases decided by the judgment in Camar and Tico v Commissionand Council, cited above, the applicants sought the annulment of a Commissiondecision rejecting a request for adjustmentof a tariff quota.
Da Retten i den foreliggende sag fandt, atbeslutningen om at erklrere den anmeldtefusion forenelig med frellesmarkedetikke var betinget af tilsagnet, säledes at Kommissionen i tilfelde af entilsidesrettelse af tilsagnet ikke ville kunne tilbagekalde beslutningen, fastslogden, at tilsagnet ikke havde bindende retsvirkninger og derfor ikke udgjordeen retsakt, der kunne anfregtes i henhold til traktatens artikel 173.
A negative decisionbeing at issue, the Court recalled that a refusal constitutes an act in respect ofwhich an action for annulment may be brought provided that the act which the
En sag bl.a. angäende en pästand om annullation af Rädets beslutning om ikkeat vedtage et forslag til forordning om indfsrelse af en endelig antidumpingtoldpä importen af visse varer blev, for sä vidt angik denne pästand, afuist(ovennrevnte dom af 29.11.2000, Eurocotonm.fl. mod Rädet).

En rrekke virksomheder, der solgte andre varer endtobak under tobaksvaremerker, og virksomheder, der opererede pä markedetfor tobaksreklamer, havde nedlagt pästand om annullation af direktivet.
In declaring the action admissible, the Court stated that theapplicants, as the main importers of the product concerned by the tariff quota,were affected by the Commission's refusal by reasonof circumstances in whichthey were differentiatedfrom all other operators trading on the same market.
Selv om deres sager blev afuist med den begrundelse, at sagsogerne ikke varsogsmälsberettigede, udelukkedeRetten ikke, at direktivet som en normativretsakt under visse omstendigheder kunne bersre visse erhvervsdrivendeumiddelbart og individuelt.
In the field of State aid, the Court considered of its own motion the admissibilityof an application for annulment of a decision declaring State aid itlegal andincompatible with the common market and ordering its recovery from therecipients (udgment of 29 September 2000 in Case T-55199 CETM v Commission).
Sagen skulle imidlertid ikke uden videre behandles,eftersom traktatens artikel 173, stk. 4, ikke giver borgerne direkte adgang tilat opnä provelse af direktiver ved Frllesskabets retsinstanser.
The Court held that, since the Spanish Confederation for the Transport of Goods(CETM) protected the interests of those of its members whichhad receivedthe aid in question and were required to make repayment pursuantto the contested decision, it was entitled to apply for annulment of that decisiononly in so far as it was directed at undertakings which were members of the CETM and whose main business was the transport of goods by road.
Fastlreggelse af begyndelsestidspunktet for sogsmälsfristen
In the field of anti-dumping, the Court found it necessary to consider pleas ofinadmissibility on the ground of lack of standing in several cases seeking theannulment of regulations.
For sä vidt angär beslutningervedtaget efter undersogelsesprocedureni EF-traktatensartikel 93, stk, 2(nuartikel 88, stk. 2, EF), udtalte Retten endnuen gang,al af de betingelser,der er nevnt itraktatensartikel 173, stk. 5, eroffentliggsrelsen i De Europreiske FrellesskabersTidende afgorende for,hvornär fristen for at anhgge annullationssogsmäl begynder at lsbe, hvissagen anlegges af andre end den medlemsstat, beslutningen er blevet meddelt,selv om den pägaeldende havde kendskab til beslutningen inden densoffentliggsrelse (dom af 12.12.2000, sag T-296197, Alitalia modKommissionen, endnu ikke trykt i Sarnling af Afgorelser).

Competition rules applicable to undertakings
Ved dom af 5.10.2000i sag C-376198 (Tysklandmod Parlamentet og Rädet, endnu ikketrykt i Samling af Afgorelser) annullerede Domstolen direktivet.

The contribution made by the Cement judgment ismultifaceted and only a small part of it can be recordedin this report.
I dom af 6. juli 2000,AICS mod Parlamentet (sag T- 139 199, endnu ikke trykti Samling af Afgorelser (appelsag: C-330/00 P)) fandt Retten, at denordregivende institution i forbindelse med indgäelse af en offentligtjenesteydelsesaftale ikke kunne gffe geldende, at den bydende, hvis bud ikkeblev antaget, ikke havde nogen sogsmälsinteresse, idet den bydende havdeafgivet et bud, der under ingen omstrendigheder kunne modtagetilslag.
For the purposes of Community competition law, the concept of an undertaking,as defined by the Court of Justice in Case C-41190 Höfner and Elser lI99Il ECRl-7979, covers any entity engaged in an economicactivity, regardlessof its legalstatus and the way in which it is financed.
Hvisafgorelsen om ikke at acceptere sagssgerens bud blev annulleret, fordivilkärene for den fsrste tilslagsmodtagers gennemforelse af den pägreldendekontrakt ikke var tilladt i henhold til lovgivningen i den pägreldendemedlemsstat, ville det medfsre genäbning af udbudsprocedurenpä andrevilkär, og sagsogeren fandtes derfor at have en retlig interesse i at anlreggedenne sag for at kunne indgive et nyt bud uden at vrre i konkurrence med denfsrste tilslagsmodtager.
In addition, it is well established thatany activity consisting in offering goods and services on a given market is aneconomic activity.
Endvidere bekrreftede Retten i dom af 10. februar 2000 i sag T-32198 og T-4llg8 (1,{ederlandse Antillen mod Kommissionen, Srnl.
Relying on that settled-case law, the Court of First Instance found, in its judgmentof 30 March 2000 in Case T-513193CNSD v Commission, that the activity ofcustoms agents was an economic activity and that customs agents had to beregarded as undertakings within the meaning of Article 85 of the Treaty.Therefore, the professional body bringing together representatives of thatprofession (the CNSD) had to be regarded as an association of undertakings within the meaning of Article 85.

The publiclaw status of the CNSD could notpreclude the application of that article.

The Court also found that, having regard to the national legislation, the membersof the CNSD could not be characterised as independent experts and that they werenot required to set tariffs taking into account the general interest and the interestsof undertakings in other sectors or usersof the services in question, in additionto the interests of the undertakings or associations of undertakings in the sectorwhich appointed them.
I artikel 230, stk. 4, bestemmesdet, at enhverfysisk ellerjuridiskpersonkan t. ] indbringe klage over beslutninger, der retter sig til ham, samt over beslutninger, som sksnt de er udferdiget i form af en forordning eller en beslutning rettet til en anden person, dog bersrer ham umiddelbart og individuelt.
Consequently, the decisions by which that bodyestablished tariff's for professional services had to be regarded not as Statedecisions by means of which it performed public functions but as decisions of an association of undertakings capable of falling within the scope of Article 85(1) ofthe Treaty.
Betingelsen om, at den pägeldende skal v & re umiddelbart bersrt af denanfegtede fellesskabsforanstaltning, indebrerer et krav om, at den anfregtedefrellesskabsforanstaltning umiddelbart har indvirkning pä den pägreldendesretsstilling, og at foranstaltningen ikke overlader et sksn til adressaterne, derskal gennemfore den, men at gennemforelsen skal ske helt automatisk, udelukkende i medfsr af de faellesskabsretlige regler og uden anvendelse afandre mellemkommende regler.
The Cement judgment upheld the approach taken by the Commission in thecontesteddecision that it was not necessary that trade associations had acommercial or economic activity of their own in order for Article 85(1) of the Treaty to be applicable to them. Article 85(1) applies to associations in so far astheir activities or those of the undertakings belonging to them are calculated toproduce the results which it aims to suppress.
I ovennrevnte dom af 27. juni 2000, Salamander m.fl. mod Parlamentet og Rädet fandt Retten, at der ikke forelä en umiddelbar indvirkning pä deerhvervsdrivendes retsstilling.
Finally, in the judgment of 12 December 2000 in Case T-I28198 Aöroports de
I den pägeldende dom fandt Retten, at direktiv98143, som sagsogerne bestred lovligheden af, ikke i sig selv kunne skabeforpligtelser for private og säledes ikke som sädan kunne päberäbes over fordem.
Paris v Commission, the Court pointed out that the provisions of the EC Treatyconcerning competition were applicable to the activities of an entity which couldbe severed from the activities in which it engaged as a public authority.Accordingly, the fact that Aöroports de Paris was a public corporation placedunder the authority of the minister responsible for civil aviation and that itmanaged facilities in public ownershipdid not in itself mean that it could not beregarded as an undertaking.
Folgelig kunne et direktiv, der som i det pägaldendetilfalde päbod medlemsstaterne at pähgge erhvervsdrivende forpligtelser, ikke i sig selv, forog uaflrengigaf, om der er vedtaget statslige gennemfsrelsesforanstaltninger, umiddelbart bersre disse erhvervsdrivendes retsstilling.
After drawing a distinction between, on the onehand, purely administrative activities and, on the other, the management andoperation of the Parisairports, activities which were remuneratedby commercialfees that varied according to turnover, the Court held that the latter were servicesamounting to a business activity.
Endvidere overloddirektivet medlemsstaterne et sksn af et sädant omfang, at det var udelukket, at sagsogerne blev umiddelbaftbersrt af direktivet.
The activity as manager of the airportinfrastructures, which enabled Adroports de Paris to determine the procedures andconditions under which suppliers of groundhandling services carried out theiractivities and to levy commercial fees in return, could not be classified as asupervisory activity and had to be considered to be an activity of an economic nature.

Retten fandt for det forste, at den anfregtede forordning var en generel retsakt,idet den uden sondring fandt anvendelse pä ethvert fartaj, der sejledeunder enmedlemsstats flag, og som aktuelteller potentielt drev denne form for fiskerii de deri fastsattezoner, og ikke kun de fiskerivirksomheder, der indenvedtagelsen mätte have fäet tilladelse til at drive denne virksomhed af denmedlemsstat, under hvis flag de sejlede.
Before the Court gave judgment, the Commission brought an action before the Court of Justice under Article 169 ofthe EC Treaty (now Article 226 EC) for a declaration that the Italian Republichad failed to fulfil its obligations under Article 5 of the EC Treary (now Article 10 EC) and Article 85 of the EC Treaty.
Retten undersogtederefter, om det pägrundlagaf visse omstrendighed kunne fastsläs,at den anfregtede forordning,selv om den var en generel retsakt, bersrte sagsogerne individuelt.
The Court of First Instance thusstayed the proceedings before it pending the judgment of the Court of Justice,which was delivered on 18 June 1998. In its judgment (Case C-35196

Commission v haly [1998] ECR I-3851), the Court of Justice held that, "byadopting and maintaining in force a law which, in granting the relative decision- making power, requires the [CNSD] to adopt a decision by an association ofundertakings contrary to Article 85 of the EC Treaty, consisting of setting a compulsory tariff for all customs agents, the Italian Republic has failed to fulfilits obligations under Articles 5 and 85 of the Treaty".
