Hvis sådanne bidrag ikke indbetales til sammenslutningen inden for en af Kommissionen fastsat tidsfrist, kan Kommissionen opkræve bødebeløbet direkte hos enhver af de virksomheder, hvis repræsentanter var medlem af de implicerede besluttende organer i sammenslutningen.
Where such contributions have not been made to the association within a time-limit fixed by the Commission, the Commission may require payment of the fine directly by any of the undertakings whose representatives were members of the decision-making bodies concerned of the association.
