46It should be noted in this connection that it is for the Commission to prove an infringement of the rules on the common organisation of the agricultural markets (see Case C-281/89 Italy v Commission [1991] ECR I-347, paragraph 19, Case C-55/91 Italy v Commission [1993] ECR I-4813, paragraph 13, and Case C-253/97 Italy v Commission [1999] ECR I-7529, paragraph 6). The Commission is therefore obliged on each occasion to give reasons for its decision finding an absence of, or defects in, inspection procedures operated by the Member State in question (see Case C-8/88 Germany v Commission [19901 ECR I-2321, paragraph 23).
