Questions referred

1.Is Article 3 of Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2988/95 (1) directly applicable to claims by which the Republic of Austria seeks to recover aid it granted under a contract to funding applicants within the framework of an agri-environmental aid programme under Council Regulation (EC) No 1698/2005 (2) by means of private-law remedies because the recipient infringed contractual obligations?

2.If the answer to the first question is in the affirmative, must the third subparagraph of Article 3(1) of the regulation referred to in Question 1 be interpreted as meaning that there is an interruption of the limitation period by the investigation or legal proceedings also when the party who issued the aid, after making its first extrajudicial claim for repayment, asks the recipient of the aid again, if need be several times, to make the repayment, and issues an extrajudicial demand for payment instead of asserting its repayment claim in court?

3.If the answer to the first question is in the negative, is the application of a limitation period of 30 years provided for by national civil law in respect of the recovery claims referred to in Question 1 compatible with EU law, in particular with the principle of proportionality?

(1) Council Regulation (EC, Euratom) No 2988/95 of 18 December 1995 on the protection of the European Communities financial interests (OJ 1995 L 312, p. 1).
