Operative part of the order







1.


Point 2 of the table in the annex to Commission Regulation (EC) No 384/2004 of 1 March 2004 concerning the classification of certain goods in the Combined Nomenclature was invalid during the time in which it was in force, namely from 22 March 2004 to 22 December 2009.










2.


In so far the products at issue in the main proceedings consist of a heat sink and a fan and are intended exclusively for use in computers, which is a matter to be ascertained by the national court, they must be classified for tariff purposes on the basis of the general rules for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature provided for in Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 of 23 July 1987 on the tariff and statistical nomenclature and on the Common Customs Tariff, as amended by Commission Regulation (EC) No 1214/2007 of 20 September 2007.

(Case C-602/13) (1)

Juzgado de Primera Instancia

Parties to the main proceedings


Applicant: Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria, SA

Defendant: Fernando Quintano Ujeta, María Isabel Sánchez García

Operative part of the order







1)


Articles 6(1) and 7(1) of Council Directive 93/13/EEC of 5 April 1993 on unfair terms in consumer contracts must be interpreted as meaning that they do not preclude national provisions for moderating default interest under a mortgage contract, provided that those national provisions:






—


do not prejudice to the assessment by the national court hearing mortgage enforcement proceedings relating to that contract on the ‘unfairness’ of the default interest clause, and










—


do not prevent that court setting aside that clause should it conclude that the latter clause is ‘unfair’ within the meaning of Article 3(1) of Directive 93/13.














2)


Directive 93/13 must be interpreted as meaning that, where the national court has established the ‘unfairness’ within the meaning of Article 3(1) of Directive 93/13 of a clause in a contract between a consumer and a seller or a supplier, the fact that that clause has not been executed cannot, in itself, prevent the national court drawing the appropriate conclusions from the ‘unfair’ nature of that clause.

Based on the measures undertaken by the Norwegian authorities to amend the financial regime of the public hospital pharmacies in Norway, the Authority’s concerns regarding the incompatibility of the financial regime with the EEA Agreement are dispelled.
