30The Commission also notes that, in paragraphs 51 to 57 of the judgment under appeal, the General Court inferred from the judgment of 28 October 2010, SGS Belgium and Others (C‑367/09, EU:C:2010:648), that that regulation was a framework regulation requiring a sectoral regulation for the application of penalties and for the purpose of identifying the categories of persons subject to those penalties. However, that interpretation applies only to the penalties provided for in Article 5 of that regulation, to which the principle that offences and penalties must be defined by law laid down in Article 49 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union and in Article 2(2) of that regulation applies. According to the Commission, extending such an interpretation to administrative measures, which are intended to protect the financial interests of the European Union and do not constitute penalties, would deprive Regulation No 2988/95 of its effectiveness and its binding nature.
