—Order the Italian Republic to pay the costs.
Pleas in law and main arguments
The time-limit within which Italian Republic was required to withdraw the aid scheme and recover the unlawfully paid aid expired two months after the date of notification of the decision in question. More than four years later, the Italian authorities have recovered only approximately 25 % of the aid.
