53Furthermore, the Comune di Milano considers that, even if it were concluded that the contested decision must be imputed to the Member States, it should nevertheless be subject to review by the Court. It explains that, just as an act adopted by Coreper must be attributed to the Council, acts of the EU Presidency must be attributed to the Council when it exercises formally and substantively the power to adopt the measure in question. The fact that the act is subsequently confirmed in the margins of the Council by the Member States cannot exempt it from review by the Court, since that confirmation brings the decision-making process to an end and renders the act final. More fundamentally, it should be possible for acts of the Council’s internal bodies to be subject to a review of legality in accordance with the case-law of the Court (judgments of 20 September 2016, Ledra Advertising and Others v Commission and ECB, C‑8/15 P to C‑10/15 P, EU:C:2016:701, and of 20 September 2016, Mallis and Others v Commission and ECB, C‑105/15 P to C‑109/15 P, EU:C:2016:702).
