Judgment_paragraph 57 · United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland v European Commission (T-503/12)

57It is also apparent from Document No VI/5330/97 that the rate of correction should be applied to the part of the expenditure which constituted a risk. When the deficiency results from a failure by the Member State to adopt an appropriate control system, then the correction should, by very reason of its flat-rate nature, be applied to the entire expenditure under the measure concerned (see, to that effect, judgments of 28 March 2007 in Spain v Commission, T‑220/04, EU:T:2007:97, paragraph 106, and in Slovenia v Commission, cited in paragraph 56 above, EU:T:2011:348, paragraph 82). According to that document, when there is reason to suppose that the deficiency is limited to that of a department’s or region’s application of the control system adopted by the Member State, the correction should be limited to the expenditure under that department or region.
