Pleas in law and main arguments
In support of its action the Parliament raises a single plea, alleging that the Commission exceeded the powers conferred on it in Article 21(3) of Regulation (EU) No 1316/2013 (2). The contested regulation amends Annex I of the basic act, adding a new Part VI, which concerns transport funding priorities of multiannual and annual work programmes. According to the Parliament, the Commission thus exceeded the powers conferred on it by the basic regulation in adopting a delegated act which ‘modifies’ that basic regulation, instead of merely ‘completing’ it, as required of it by Article 21(3).
