Questione giuridica chiave
Whether Art. 14(2)(c) and Art. 15(3)(c) PschmV validly condition extra protection on data requested or prompted by the authority.
Decisione estratta
The Federal Council did not exceed its delegated powers and the rule is not arbitrary; the five-year protection may depend on authority-requested or authority-prompted data.
Motivazione estratta
The free-import regime aims to lower agricultural costs, but additional protection is exceptional and must be limited to significant indication extensions. Requiring a link to authority-requested data prevents indefinite extension through minor changes.
