46It is true that, unlike Regulation No 44/2001, Regulation No 2201/2003, like its predecessor Regulation No 1347/2000, does not include any rule concerning penalty payments. However, as the European Commission has submitted, the fact that that issue was not addressed during the drafting of those regulations is not a ground for inferring that the intention of the EU legislature was to exclude the enforcement of penalty payments from their scope. Such a measure, inasmuch as it contributes to bringing about compliance with judgments given, under those regulations, in relation to rights of access, pertains to the objective of effectiveness pursued by Regulation No 2201/2003.
