It follows from that caselaw that, in order to determine whether an exporter has requested a refund in excess of that applicable to the goods actually exported, it is not sufficient to take into account the facts known to the competent authorities at the time they examine the request; it is also necessary to take into consideration facts subsequent to that request, in particular those detected during checks carried out by those authorities.
