Recital 149
(149) Ba cheart na Ballstáit a bheith in ann na rialacha maidir le pionóis choiriúla a leagan síos do sháruithe ar an Rialachán seo, lena n-áirítear do sháruithe ar rialacha náisiúnta a ghlactar de bhun an Rialacháin seo agus laistigh de theorainneacha an Rialacháin seo.
Féadfar ceadú faoi na pionóis choiriúla sin freisin go gcaillfear na brabúis a fhaightear trí sháruithe ar an Rialachán seo.
Níor cheart, áfach, gurb é an toradh a bheadh ar phionóis choiriúla a fhorchur le haghaidh sáruithe ar rialacha náisiúnta den sórt sin agus a bheadh ar phionóis riaracháin a fhorchur go sárófaí prionsabal ne bis in idem, mar a léiríonn an Chúirt Bhreithiúnais é.
(149) Member States should be able to lay down the rules on criminal penalties for infringements of this Regulation, including for infringements of national rules adopted pursuant to and within the limits of this Regulation.
Those criminal penalties may also allow for the deprivation of the profits obtained through infringements of this Regulation.
However, the imposition of criminal penalties for infringements of such national rules and of administrative penalties should not lead to a breach of the principle of ne bis in idem, as interpreted by the Court of Justice.
