Operative part of the judgment
The Court:
1.Declares that, by adopting a procedure, which has been in existence for a long time and is still followed, of directly awarding to Agusta SpA contracts for the purchase of Agusta and Agusta Bell helicopters to meet the requirements of several military and civilian corps, without any competitive tendering procedure, and, in particular, without complying with the procedures provided for by Council Directive 93/36/EEC of 14 June 1993 coordinating procedures for the award of public supply contracts, as amended by European Parliament and Council Directive 97/52/EC of 13 October 1997, and previously, by Council Directive 77/62/EEC of 21 December 1976 coordinating procedures for the award of public supply contracts, as amended and supplemented by Council Directives 80/767/EEC of 22 July 1980 and 88/295/EEC of 22 March 1988, the Italian Republic has failed to fulfil its obligations under those directives;
2.Orders the Italian Republic to pay the costs.
