Language of the case: French
Referring court
Cour d’appel de Bruxelles
Parties to the main proceedings
Applicant: bpost SA
Defendant: Institut belge des services postaux et des télécommunications (IBPT)
Operative part of the judgment
The principle of non-discrimination in postal tariffs laid down in Article 12 of Directive 97/67/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 15 December 1997 on common rules for the development of the internal market of Community postal services and the improvement of quality of service, as amended by Directive 2008/6/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 February 2008, must be interpreted as not precluding a system of quantitative discounts per sender, such as that at issue in the main proceedings.
