Parties to the main proceedings


Applicant: Giuseppa Romeo

Defendant: Regione Siciliana

Questions referred







1.


In interpreting and applying the rules and principles of European Union law, may a national court — on the basis of national legislation which makes a renvoi to European Union law in relation to purely internal situations — depart from, or incorrectly apply, the interpretation placed on those rules and principles in the case-law of the Court of Justice?










2.


Are the interpretation and application of Article 3 of Law 241/1990 and of Article 3 of Sicilian Regional Law 10/1991 — in relation to Article 1 of Law 241/90, which requires the Italian administrative authorities to apply the principles of European Union law, pursuant to the obligation to state reasons for the acts of public authorities laid down in the second paragraph of Article 296 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union and in Article 41(2)(c) of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union — to the effect that measures of public authorities in a private-law form (that is to say, measures which relate to individual rights and which are in any event mandatory in matters relating to pensions) may be exempt from the obligation to state reasons, compatible with European Union law, and does such a case amount to infringement of an essential procedural requirement governing an administrative measure?










3.


Is the first sentence of Article 21g(2) of Law 241/1990, as interpreted by the administrative case-law — in relation to the obligation to state reasons for an administrative measure laid down by Article 3 of Law 241/1990 and by Sicilian Regional Law 10/1991, read in conjunction with the obligation to state reasons for the acts of public authorities laid down by the second paragraph of Article 296 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union and Article 41(2)(c) of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union — compatible with Article 1 of Law 241/1990, which requires the administrative authorities to apply the principles of European Union law, and, consequently, are the interpretation and application of that interpretation whereby the authorities may supplement a statement of reasons for an administrative measure in court proceedings compatible and admissible?
