Volker und Markus Schecke GbR and another v Land Hessen and another C-92/09 and C-93/09, [2 010] All ER (D) 105 (Nov)

The Grand Chamber ruled, inter alia, that Arts 42(8b) and 44a of Council Regulation (EC) 1290/2005 (on the financing of the common agricultural policy), as amended, and Commission Regulation (EC) 259/2008 (laying down detailed rules for the application of Regulation 1290/2005 as regards the publication of information on the beneficiaries of funds deriving from the European Agricultural Guarantee Fund (EAGF) or the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development (EAFRD)) were invalid insofar as, with regard to natural persons who were beneficiaries of EAGF and EAFRD aid, those provisions imposed an obligation to publish personal data relating to each beneficiary without drawing a distinction based on relevant criteria such as the periods during which those persons had received such aid, the frequency of such aid or the nature and amount thereof.

The invalidity did not allow any action to be brought to challenge the effects of the publication of the lists of beneficiaries of EAGF and EAFRD aid
