Pleas in law and main arguments
The applicant seeks compensation for the loss which it states that it has incurred because certain quantities of the maize purchased by it in 2007 from the stocks of the Hungarian intervention agency in two tender procedures were missing from the relevant warehouses.
In the grounds of its application, the applicant submits inter alia that the Commission failed to exercise its supervisory powers over the Hungarian paying agency and also did not insist on observance of the Hungarian paying agency’s obligations. It further states that it would have suffered no loss if the Commission had, in law and in fact, laid down more stringent and more precise requirements and control mechanisms in relation to the warehouse keepers’ fitness and reliability, to the suitability of the storage locations, and to stock surveys in respect of, and the identification and storage of, the intervention goods.
