1.

First plea in law in support of the principal claim: error of law and incorrect assessment of the available evidence

The Hungarian authorities granted unlawful State aid to 21 competitors of the applicant, in breach of Article 107(1) TFEU. That aid was not intended solely for the additional costs incurred in employing disabled workers, but was also to cover the general costs of the recipient undertakings, thereby distorting competition. In the decision primarily contested, the Commission indicated that the total amount of the aid granted to the recipient undertakings does not exceed the total amount of the aid that may be granted in accordance with Articles 41 and 42 of the General block exemption Regulation, (1) and that, in principle, the contested aid is therefore compatible with the internal market for the purposes of Article 107(3) TFEU. The decision primarily contested does not address the injurious effects for the applicant of the national measures by which the aid was allocated, and thereby infringes the applicant’s procedural rights under Article 108(2) TFEU.

Second plea in law in support of the subsidiary claim: error of law and manifest distortion of the available evidence

The Commission erred in law and manifestly distorted the available evidence by stating, in the decision contested in the alternative, that the complaint made by OPS Újpest-lift Kft. contains no new legal or factual elements giving rise to any changes in the Commission’s assessment in case SA. 29432 — CP 290/2009. The decision contested in the alternative does not address the injurious effects for the applicant of the national measures by which the aid was allocated, and thereby infringes the applicant’s procedural rights under Article 108(2) TFEU.
