First of all, in paragraphs 107 to 118 of the judgment under appeal, the General Court examined the ground based on Regulation 2018/1725. In that regard, it found, in paragraphs 110 and 111 of that judgment, that since they had to be used for his defence in the recovery procedure, the data requested by TC could not be regarded as falling within Article 9(1)(a) or (b) of that regulation. The General Court nevertheless held, in paragraph 113 of that judgment, that, ‘in the light of the importance accorded to the right to be heard in the EU legal order, the fact that such information may be found in [A]’s “personal file” cannot, as such, preclude the information from being disclosed to [TC] in order to enable him to make his observations, as required by the case-law, effectively in the exercise of that right.’
