41If the value of the services in Annex II B exceeds that of the services in Annex II A, the contract must be awarded in accordance with Articles 23 and 35(4) of Directive 2004/18 only. By contrast, the other rules laid down by the directive in relation to the coordination of procedures, in particular those applicable to the requirements to put out contracts to competition by means of prior advertising and those laid down in Article 53 of the Directive relating to the contract award criteria, are not applicable to such contracts (judgments in Commission v Ireland, C‑507/03, EU:C:2007:676, paragraph 24, and Commission v Ireland, C‑226/09, EU:C:2010:697, paragraph 27).
