35It follows that, as regards agri-environmental measures relating to a number of years, where the beneficiary of the agri-environmental support has prevented an on-the-spot check from being carried out, making it impossible to ascertain whether the conditions for eligibility of the aid have been complied with throughout the commitment period, the applications for agri-environmental aid concerned must be rejected in accordance with Articles 17(3) of Regulation No 2419/2001 and 23(2) of Regulation No 796/2004. For the purposes of those provisions, the applications concerned accordingly cover all the applications with respect to the conditions of eligibility, which must be complied with throughout the duration of the agri-environmental project in respect of which the beneficiary has pledged an undertaking and to which the on-the-spot checks relate.
