Questions referred







1.


Does the information obligation under Article 13(2) of the Directive, (1) to provide the information pursuant to Article 13(1) in the general terms and conditions, already arise when the trader makes the general terms and conditions available for download on his website, on which no contracts are concluded?

3.


Does the trader meet his obligation to provide the information in the general terms and conditions if he provides the consumer with — in addition to a document containing the general terms and conditions — a list of prices and services also drawn up by the trader in a separate document containing the information pursuant to Article 13(1) of the Directive?

Resolution on ‘Let’s turn out and vote for a united Europe’
(2019/C 240/01)
At its plenary session on 15 and 16 May 2019 (meeting on 15 May), the European Economic and Social Committee adopted the following resolution by 226 votes to 4 with 12 abstentions.


Let’s turn out and vote for a united Europe


On the eve of the elections for the European Parliament and taking into consideration the Declaration on the Future of Europe agreed by the EU-27 Heads of State or Government in Sibiu (Romania) on 9 May 2019, the European Economic and Social Committee calls on EU citizens to use their right to vote.
The EU is founded on common values — democracy, protection of human rights, freedom of expression, the rule of law, tolerance, justice, equality, solidarity and democratic participation. These values need to be continuously defended and protected as they make it possible for Europeans to live in an open society where each and every citizen is respected and where a European identity, in addition to our national identity, unites us.
Today we face common and complex challenges:






—


Climate change










—


Social, economic and territorial inequalities










—


Poverty










—


Unemployment, especially among the young










—


Shrinking civic space










—


Migration










—


Security and terrorism










—


Corruption




And nationalism is not the answer.
Only through a united Europe can we make real progress on these issues.
We stand for a Europe which puts the needs of its citizens at the heart of its policies and actions and ensures that economic, social and environmental challenges are tackled together in a sustainable manner; a Europe which guarantees quality of life and employment, a favourable environment for investment and entrepreneurship, as well as increased economic and social cohesion.
We also stand for a Europe which provides opportunities for young people to fulfil their potential and promotes their active participation in the European political processes.
We, as representatives of civil society organisations, are working together for an EU that delivers and more effectively meets the expectations and needs of its citizens.
We urge citizens across Europe to turn out and vote in the forthcoming European elections. We call on civil society organisations to join our efforts to mobilise a positive vote for a united Europe.

Language of the case: Romanian

Curtea de Apel Cluj

Parties to the main proceedings


Appellant: SC Banca E S.A.

Respondent: G.D.

Question referred

Given the primacy of EU law, must the principles of legal certainty and effectiveness be interpreted as precluding, in disputes concerning the protection of consumer rights, the alteration of the procedural rules, after the consumer has brought an action before the courts, by means of a binding decision of the Curtea Constituțională (Constitutional Court), to which effect is given in a law amending the Codul de procedură civilă (Code of Civil Procedure), which institutes a new means of appeal, one that can be used by the trader, with the result that the duration of the proceedings is extended and the costs of resolving the dispute are increased?
