Belgium considers, moreover, that the alternative measures it is proposing to take with regard to withholding tax and capital duty are general measures, whose scope is consequently wider than just coordination centres, and do not need therefore to be notified to the Commission under Article 88(3) of the Treaty.
Belgia leiab, et alternatiivsete meetmete näol, mida ta kavatseb dividendimaksu ja kapitalimaksu suhtes rakendada, on tegemist üldiste meetmetega, mille rakendusala ei piirdu seega koordineerimiskeskustega, ja millest ei ole seetõttu vaja teavitada komisjoni vastavalt asutamislepingu artikli 88 lõikele 3.
