Questions referred







1.


Does a legal person whose capital is wholly owned by the State, which is established by the government of a Member State in the form of a joint stock company (a legal form subsumed in national law under the broader category of profit-making associations), but which, according to its instrument of constitution as adopted by a government decision, has as its purpose ‘to establish a functioning trade mechanism leading to the better valorisation of national agricultural resources and production’ and which is governed by a general meeting of shareholders composed of representatives appointed and mandated in writing by a ministry of that Member State in accordance with the announced agenda, enjoy the protection conferred by Article 16 and Article 17(1) of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union?










2.


If so, do the provisions of Article 12(1) and Article 16(1) of Directive (EU) 2019/1158, (1) interpreted in the light of Article 16 and Article 17(1) of the Charter, preclude a national rule such as that contained in Article 25(2)(b) of [Ordonanța de urgență a Guvernului nr. 111/2010 privind concediul și indemnizația lunară pentru creșterea copiilor (Government Emergency Order No 111/2010 on parental leave and the corresponding monthly dependent child allowance)], which establishes a general and absolute prohibition on the dismissal of an employee during the period in which he or she is in receipt of a reintegration incentive (a social benefit paid by the State to employees returning from parental leave until one year after the expiry of the maximum period during which they could benefit from that leave), regardless of the actual cause of dismissal?
