41First of all, a provision whose meaning is clear and unambiguous requires no interpretation (judgments of 25 November 2009, Germany v Commission, T‑376/07, EU:T:2009:467, paragraph 22, and of 13 July 2018, Société générale v ECB, T‑757/16, EU:T:2018:473, paragraph 33). A straightforward reading of Article 92(1) of the Withdrawal Agreement permits the conclusion that the scope of application thereof does not extend to administrative procedures which concern requests for exemption for interconnectors, pursuant to Article 63 of Regulation 2019/943. Article 92 of the Withdrawal Agreement grants competence to the institutions, bodies, offices and agencies of the European Union only in certain administrative procedures that raise issues against the institutions, bodies, offices and agencies of the United Kingdom or natural or legal persons residing or established in the United Kingdom regarding compliance with EU law. The institutions, bodies, offices and agencies of the European Union thus retain competence to investigate and, if necessary, sanction those institutions, bodies, offices and agencies of the United Kingdom and the natural or legal persons residing or established there if a procedure has been initiated before the end of the transition period.
