1 . PROCEEDINGS - APPLICATION FOR ANNULMENT - NATURAL OR LEGAL PERSONS - DECISION OF INDIVIDUAL CONCERN TO THEM - MEANING
( EEC TREATY, ARTICLE 173 )
2 . PROCEEDINGS - APPLICATION FOR ANNULMENT - NATURAL OR LEGAL PERSONS - ORGANIZATION FOR THE PROTECTION OF COLLECTIVE INTERESTS - MEASURE AFFECTING THE GENERAL INTERESTS OF SUCH AN ORGANIZATION - NOT A DECISION OF INDIVIDUAL CONCERN TO IT
1 . NATURAL OR LEGAL PERSONS TO WHOM ARTICLE 173 REFERS AND TO WHOM THE DISPUTED MEASURE IS NOT ADDRESSED MAY ONLY CLAIM THAT THE MEASURE IS OF INDIVIDUAL CONCERN TO THEM IF IT AFFECTS THEM BY REASON OF CERTAIN ATTRIBUTES WHICH ARE PECULIAR TO THEM, OR BY REASON OF CIRCUMSTANCES IN WHICH THEY ARE DIFFERENTIATED FROM ALL OTHER PERSONS, AND BY VIRTUE OF THESE FACTORS DISTINGUISHES THEM INDIVIDUALLY JUST AS IN THE CASE OF THE PERSON ADDRESSED .
2 . AN ORGANIZATION FORMED FOR THE PROTECTION OF THE COLLECTIVE INTERESTS OF A CATEGORY OF PERSONS CANNOT BE CONSIDERED AS BEING DIRECTLY AND INDIVIDUALLY CONCERNED BY A MEASURE AFFECTING THE GENERAL INTERESTS OF THAT CATEGORY .
THE MERE PARTICIPATION OF SUCH AN ORGANIZATION IN THE DISCUSSIONS WHICH PRECEDED THE DISPUTED MEASURE IS NOT SUFFICIENT TO CHANGE THE NATURE OF THE RIGHT OF ACTION WHICH, IN THE CONTEXT OF ARTICLE 173, IT MAY POSSESS IN RELATION TO THAT MEASURE .
