German term or phrase: festhalten (in this context)
from cartel administration proceedings:

"Da aber die Ruege erhoben worden ist und sich der Beschwerdegegner sowie die Beteiligte zu 1. dagegen verteidigen, erscheint es notwendig, folgendes festzuhalten:

Der Beschwerdegegner hat durch sein Verhalten zumindest den boesen Schein einer inkorrekten Verfahrensdurchfuehrung gesetzt und dadurch die erheblichen Zweifel an der Rechtmaessigkeit des Heilungsverfahrens eher noch verstaerkt."

This word keeps coming up over and over. In this context, what would be the best wording?

Vielen Dank.
