The curb on growth imposed by the solvency requirement has not had anything like the constraining effect it would have had if no aid or only a part of the aid had been granted.
Die durch die Solvenzanforderung bewirkte Wachstumsbeschränkung hat daher ihre zwingende Wirkung, die sie ohne die Beihilfen oder ohne einen Teil der Beihilfen gehabt hätte, nur punktuell entfaltet.
