On 8 June 2022, the General Court of the European Union dismissed both the UK (T363/19) and ITV plc’s (T456/19) applications made in respect of the European Commission’s UK Controlled Foreign Company State aid decision in their entirety.
It remains to be seen whether this decision is appealed to the Court of Justice of the EU. In the meantime, affected groups will also need to consider what further action if any to take regarding the ongoing domestic recovery proceedings.
