Gottfried Heinrich: ECJ 10 Mar 2009

(Grand Chamber) The claimant had been refused entry onto an airplane on the basis that he had in his cabin baggage a prohibited article, namely a tennis racquet. He said that the regulation was not binding because the annex on which the racquet was listed was not published.
Held: A regulation could not take effect without being published, and nor could it be enforced without being published.
