Operative part of the order
Decision C(2011) 863 final of the Commission of 11 February 2011, concerning the award of State aid pursuant to Articles 107 TFEU and 108 TFEU and authorising State aid No 546/2010 of the Republic of Bulgaria for investment in agricultural holdings in the form of corporation tax relief, must be interpreted as not precluding that Member State from refusing the award of State aid under that scheme on the ground that the applicant does not meet a condition, laid down in national law, according to which no aid can be awarded to a taxpayer who has debts towards the State, notwithstanding the fact that that decision does not expressly lay down such a condition.
