239The applicant maintains that the application of a new policy in calculating the fines, after it had voluntarily submitted self-incriminating evidence, is contrary to the principle of legitimate expectations. It is, it alleges, entitled to rely on the Commission's practice with regard to the setting of fines which was applicable at the time when it approached the Commission. The Commission's discretion was circumscribed, in these circumstances, by the fact that the applicant cooperated with it on the basis of the method of setting fines set out in Commission Decision 94/601/EC of 13 July 1994 relating to a proceeding under Article 85 of the EC Treaty (IV/C/33.833 — Cartonboard), and in the Draft Commission notice on the non-imposition or the mitigation of fines in cartel cases (OJ 1995 C 341, p. 13, hereinafter ‘the draft leniency notice’), upon which both the applicant and the Commission relied at the time.
