32As regards the first condition, it entails, first, the adoption of the project by a specific act of legislation. It should be observed here that the terms ‘project’ and ‘consent’ are defined in Article 1(2) of Directive 85/337. A legislative act adopting a project must therefore, if it is to come within the scope of Article 1(5) of the directive, be specific and display the same characteristics as a consent of that kind. In particular, it must grant the developer the right to carry out the project (see WWF and Others, paragraph 58, and Boxus and Others, paragraph 38).
