After reference by the Supreme Court, the Court of Appeal of Amsterdam rules that an appeal to the principle of legitimate expectations can only succeed if the inspector deliberately adopts a position.

The Supreme Court declares the appeal in cassation unfounded without further motivation (art. 81 paragraph 1 RO Act).
