Vedrørende den appellerede doms præmis 51 skal det bemærkes, at denne består i en gengivelse af påstande fremsat af Kongeriget Belgien, der gjorde gældende, at Kommissionen i tilfælde af afvigelser havde pålagt det enten at foretage kontrol på stedet eller nedsætte størrelsen af det støttede areal eller foretage anden administrativ kontrol.
So far as paragraph 51 of the judgment under appeal is concerned, it should be noted that that paragraph consisted of a summary of the claims made by the Kingdom of Belgium, which argued that the Commission had required it, where there were anomalies, either to conduct on-the-spot checks or reduce the area for which aid would be granted, or conduct other administrative checks.
