I den pågældende sag konstaterede Retten, at sagsøgeren, der er en sammenslutning af virksomheder, ikke alene har bestridt Kommissionens afvisning af at indlede den formelle undersøgelsesprocedure, men også anfægtet begrundelsen for den anfægtede beslutning.
The Court found, in this case, that the applicant, which is an association of undertakings, does not merely seek to challenge the Commission’s refusal to initiate the formal investigation procedure, but also calls into question the merits of the contested decision.
