It addresses three main questions: what is the exact scope of unlimited jurisdiction; what should the intensity of control in case of unlimited jurisdiction; and how does the functioning of control in case of unlimited jurisdiction looks in practice (how to readapt or recalculate the amount of fine and, if the court is prone to do this, how to replace the reasoning of the European Commission).
