The Supreme Administrative Court unanimously confirmed the lower section's declaration that an administrative act was legally non-existent. The Ministry of Public Prosecution challenged a decision regarding an act purportedly issued by the Directorate of the Olive Oil and Oil Products Institute. The court ruled that since the Directorate is a collegiate body, the act could not be validly issued without a formal deliberation by its members.
