68While Article 9(3) cannot be relied on in order to assess the legality of Article 10(1) of Regulation No 1367/2006 (see to that effect, judgments of 13 January 2015, Council and Others v Vereniging Milieudefensie and Stichting Stop Luchtverontreiniging Utrecht, C‑401/12 P to C‑403/12 P, EU:C:2015:4, paragraph 61, and of 13 January 2015, Council and Commission v Stichting Natuur en Milieu and Pesticide Action Network Europe, C‑404/12 P and C‑405/12 P, EU:C:2015:5, paragraph 53), such a finding, in accordance with the case-law referred to in paragraph 66 of the present judgment, does not preclude the provisions of that regulation from being interpreted, so far as possible, in a manner that is consistent with the Aarhus Convention (see, to that effect, judgment of 3 September 2020, Mellifera v Commission, C‑784/18 P, not published, EU:C:2020:630, paragraph 77).
