97It is therefore necessary that the substantive conditions and procedural rules governing the adoption of those decisions to appoint judges are such that they cannot give rise to reasonable doubts, in the minds of individuals, as to the imperviousness of the judges concerned to external factors and as to their neutrality with respect to the interests before them, once they have been appointed. It is important, inter alia, in that perspective, that those conditions and procedural rules should be drafted in a way which meets the requirements set out in the preceding paragraph above (see, to that effect, judgment of 20 April 2021, Repubblika, C‑896/19, EU:C:2021:311, paragraph 57 and the case-law cited).
