96As the General Court correctly pointed out in paragraphs 110 and 111 of the judgment under appeal, it is clear from settled case-law that where an institution must carry out complex assessments, judicial review is, in principle, confined to verifying that the relevant rules governing procedure and the duty to give reasons have been complied with, that the facts relied on have been accurately stated and that there has been no error of law, manifest error in the assessment of the facts or misuse of powers (see judgment of 1 July 2008, Chronopost and La Poste v UFEX and Others, C‑341/06 P and C‑342/06 P, EU:C:2008:375, paragraph 143 and the case-law cited). Judicial review must be limited in that way in particular when the EU institutions, as in the present instance, have to, first, take account of potentially divergent interests, such as the general interest of the European Union and that of the social partners, and, second, take decisions that involve policy choices (see, to that effect, judgments of 5 October 1994, Germany v Council, C‑280/93, EU:C:1994:367, paragraph 91, and of 14 July 2005, Rica Foods v Commission, C‑40/03 P, EU:C:2005:455, paragraph 55 and the case-law cited).
