33The Court requested the parties to state their views on the effects of any annulment of the disputed provision and on the admissibility of the application in the light of the case-law according to which partial annulment of a Community act is possible only if the elements whose annulment is sought may be severed from the remainder of the act (see, in particular, Case C-29/99 Commission v Council [2002] ECR I-11221, paragraphs 45 and 46).
