In this regard, it should be noted first of all that, as the Court has held on a number of occasions, the legal remedy available regarding decisions of a competition selection board normally consists of a direct application to the European Union Court (see, inter alia, judgment of 14 July 1983 in Case 144/82 Detti v Court of Justice, paragraph 16 and the case-law cited).
