Conseil
by
European

Communities

order

the

of

d’E´ tat (Council of State), Belgium, of 8 January 2002, received
at the Court Registry on 22 January 2002, for a preliminary
ruling in the case of ATRAL SA against the Belgian State, on
the following questions:

A.

Should Council Directive 73/23/EEC (1) of 19 February
1973 on the harmonisation of the laws of Member States
relating to electrical equipment designed for use within
certain voltage limits, Council Directive 89/336/EEC (2)
of 3 May 1989 on the approximation of the laws of the
Member States relating to electromagnetic compatibility
and Directive 1999/5/EC (3) of 9 March 1999 of the
European Parliament and of the Council on radio equip-
ment and telecommunications terminal equipment and
the mutual recognition of their conformity of 9 March
1999 be interpreted:

(a)

(b)

as applicable to alarm systems and networks, in
particular to products of that type which use radio
transmission, commonly known as wireless alarm
systems,

and, if the answer thereto is in the affirmative, as
producing sufficiently significant harmonisation in
that field that national provisions governing the
same field, such as Article 12 of the Law of 10 April
1990 on caretaking firms, security firms and internal
caretaking services and the Royal Decree of 23 April
1999 laying down the procedure for approving the
alarm systems and networks referred to in the Law
of 10 April 1990, must necessarily conform to
them?

B.

In the event that the reply to the first question is in the
affirmative:

Should Article 3 of Council Directive 73/23/EEC of
19 February 1973, Article 5 of Council Directive
89/336/EEC of 3 May 1989 and Article 6(1) of Directive
1999/5/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council
of 9 March 1999 be interpreted as prohibiting national
provisions which, as do Article 12 of the Law of 10 April
1990 and the Royal Decree of 23 April 1999, make the
placing on the market in a Member State of all alarm
systems and networks lawfully produced and/or marketed
in another Member State (...) subject to a prior authoris-
ation procedure relating to components of those alarm
systems and networks which satisfy the requirements of
the directives referred to?

Secondly, should Council Directive 73/23/EEC of 19 Feb-
ruary 1973, Council Directive 89/336/EEC of 3 May
1989 and Directive 1999/5/EC of the European Parlia-
ment and of the Council of 9 March 1999 be interpreted
