Public Administration and Administrative Policies

Final case study

The complainant company X from Germany is an importer of bananas from


Brazil. Company X has valid import permissions (individual administrative decision)
from Brazil, which were issued by EU administration. Company X loaded banana
transport on the ship and sent it from Brazil on 31st March 2016? On 10th April 2016
community protection administrative measures have been introduced which ruled on
immediate suspension of banana imports from Brazil. From EU point of view it was
necessary to protect the common market during the crisis. Company X just after arrival
to Germany, in the port, on 14th April 2016, found out about new protective measures.
As a result of the ban of the banana import from Brazil it lost money for the banana
purchase, transport and it lost the benefits from selling bananas in EU. It was
economically non profitable to send the transport back and it had to destroy bananas.
