39Although that government submits that the only solution remaining for maintaining prices at the desired level is State regulation of those prices, it does not state, however, in what way such a measure would be more restrictive than the residence requirement adopted. Nor did it justify in what way another measure, mentioned in the file, of incentives to lease residences acquired on agricultural property would prove to be more restrictive than that requirement. In the Danish Government's observations there was also no mention or evaluation of other measures capable, in some circumstances, of being less detrimental to the free movement of capital, such as provisions for higher tax on resale of land occurring shortly after acquisition, or even the requirement of a substantial minimum duration for leases of agricultural land.
