When calculating an administrative fine, which approach aligns with Article 83?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Fines aren't vending-machine prices—you weigh how bad it was, whether it was careless or on purpose, what you fixed, past run-ins, and whether you cooperated. Context changes the number.
Full Explanation
Article 83 requires each fine to be effective, proportionate and dissuasive, and lists factors including the nature, gravity and duration of the infringement, intentional or negligent character, actions to mitigate damage, prior infringements, degree of cooperation, and other criteria. Flat identical amounts or language-count formulas do not reflect that analysis.
