Questions referred

1. When applying Article 81(1) EC, which criteria must be
applied when assessing whether a concerted practice has as
its object the prevention, restriction or distortion of competi-
tion within the common market?

2. Is Article 81 EC to be interpreted as meaning that, when a
national court applies that provision, the evidence of a causal
connection between concerted practice and market conduct
must be adduced and appraised in accordance with the rules
of national law, provided that those rules are not less favour-
able than the rules governing similar domestic actions and
they do not make the exercise of the rights granted by Com-
munity law in practice impossible or excessively difficult?

3. When applying the concept of concerted practices

in
Article 81 EC,
is there always a presumption of a causal
connection between concerted practice and market conduct
even if the concerted practice is an isolated event and the
undertaking which took part in the practice remains active
on the market or only in those cases in which the concerted
practice has taken place with a certain degree of regularity
over a lengthy period?

Must Article 15(1) of Annex I to the Agreement between the
European Community and its Member States, of the one part,
and the Swiss Confederation, of the other, on the free move-
ment of persons (1) be interpreted as meaning that, as regards
access to a self-employed activity and the pursuit thereof, only
self-employed persons within the meaning of Article 12(1) of
Annex I to the agreement are to be afforded no less favourable
treatment in the host country than that accorded to its own
nationals, or does this also apply to self-employed frontier
workers within the meaning of Article 13(1) of Annex I to the
agreement.
