The box  entitled “Legal basis provisions” (third row, right-hand side) should read:

  • Art. 44 TFEU: countervailing charges.

The box  beginning with “The Common Market Organisation (CMO) as …” (forth row, right-hand side) should read:

The Common Market Organisation (CMO) as the most common instrument: Art. 40(1)(c) TFEU

Typically characterised by price regulation, production rules, intervention mechanisms, import and export regimes.

E.g.:

  • The banana dispute: WTO panel decisions; numerous ECJ decisions, in particular the Bananas WTO case (1995);

The competition rules apply only to the extent determined by the European Parliament and the Council (of Ministers), Art. 42 TFEU.
