(207) For så vidt angår de tre sammenslutninger af virksom heder, STA, ADETS og Fachverband Betonstahlmatten, finder Kommissionen, at det foreliggende bevis materiale giver vigtige holdepunkter for, at sammen slutningerne var inddraget i traktatstridige aftaler; i betragtning af at disse sammenslutninger lededes af personer, der samtidig indtog overordnede stillinger i de vigtigste virksomheder, der var medlemmer af de respektive sammenslutninger, vil Kommissionen ikke drage nogen definitiv konklusion vedrørende sammenslutningernes rolle i forbindelse med aftalerne.
(207) So far as the three associations STA, Adets and Fachverband Betonstahlmatten are concerned, the Commission takes the view that the available evidence strongly suggests that they too were involved in agreements contrary to the Treaty; however, in view of the fact that the senior management of the associations consisted of leading personalities from the largest undertakings among their members, the Commission does not propose to draw any final conclusions as to the associations' own involvement.
