Judgment_paragraph 86 · Giovanni Pesce and Others v Presidenza del Consiglio dei Ministri - Dipartimento della Protezione Civile and Others (C-78/16, C-79/16)

86In so far as the right to compensation flows directly from Article 17 of the Charter, the mere fact that neither Directive 2000/29 nor Implementing Decision 2015/789 provides specifically for a compensation scheme or that they do not impose an explicit obligation to provide for such a scheme cannot be interpreted as precluding such a right. It follows that the decision cannot be deemed invalid on that ground.
