81The case-law of the General Court referred to in paragraph 70 of the judgment under appeal has the consequence that the EU judicature must, when adjudicating on an action for annulment on the basis of the provisions of Article 263 TFEU, assess the lawfulness of the contested act in the light of EU law, whereas, in the context of an action brought on the basis of Article 272 TFEU, an applicant can only invoke infringements of contractual clauses or of the law applicable to the contract concerned.
