Judgment_paragraph 36 · Banan-Kompaniet AB and Skandinaviska Bananimporten AB v Council of the European Union and Commission of the European Communities (T-57/00)

36They submit that the applicants have not adduced sufficient evidence of the existence and extent of the alleged loss or the existence of a causal link between the unlawful conduct complained of and that loss. More specifically, they complain that they have given no indication of the authorities or companies who sold the export licences to them, the dates of the transactions and the ‘actual’ use made of the licences. The Commission also considers that the applicants should have given explanations for the possible overlap between the loss alleged in the present case and that alleged in the parallel Case T-56/00 Dole Fresh Fruit International v Council and Commission.
