Domstolen udtalte, at ordet "institution" i Traktatens artikel 215, stk. 2, derfor ikke skal forstås således, at det kun omfatter de fællesskabsinstitutioner, der er opregnet i Traktatens artikel 4, stk. 1, men således, at det også - under hensyn til Traktatens system med hensyn til ansvar uden for kontraktforhold - omfatter fællesskabsorganer som EIB.
That is the reason that the word "institutions" used in the second paragraph of Article 215 of the Treaty must not be understood as referring only to the institutions of the Community listed in Article 4(1) of the Treaty but as also covering, in respect of the system of non-contractual liability set up by the Treaty, Community institutions such as the EIB.
