Judicial supervision, generally occurring subsequently both to administrative action and to measures of administrative supervision, is designed to correct errors which have already occurred and to provide compensation for losses resulting from them. It is in this sense quite different from both administrative and political supervision of the administration which can occur both ex ante and ex post. This chapter discusses the various avenues for judicial review of EU administrative action in detail, assessing first direct legal actions for annulment and failure to act, before turning to incidental forms of review. The focus then shifts to the remedy of damages and concludes with an overview of interim relief proceedings.Less
