122As regards, in the second place, the duration of the infringement, it should be borne in mind that that duration must be assessed by reference to the date on which the Court assesses the facts and not the date on which proceedings are brought before it by the Commission. In the present case, the duration of the infringement, of over 11 years from the date of delivery of the judgment of 3 July 2008, Commission v Ireland (C‑215/06, EU:C:2008:380), is considerable (see, by analogy, judgment of 22 February 2018, Commission v Greece, C‑328/16, EU:C:2018:98, paragraph 99).
