The decisions of the Milchförderungsfonds on the granting of support for exports within the common market constitute an infringement of Article 85 (1) of the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community.
The Milchförderungsfonds shall refrain in future from taking any decisions on the granting of support for exports within the common market, so long as, for want of appropriate precautions on the part of the Milchförderungsfonds, there remains a possibility of the support being used by the recipient undertakings to reduce selling prices or for advertising and sales promotion measures - which are brand-orientated, - which seek to discourage the buying of dairy products not from Germany or to disparage such products in the eyes of the foreign consumer, or - which commend the dairy products in question to the foreign consumer simply on the basis of their national origin.
