      Operative part of the order
   
   The principles of fiscal neutrality and effectiveness of the common system of value added tax must be interpreted as precluding a Member State from refusing to allow the recipient of a supply to deduct input value added tax, where, with respect to the same transaction, value added tax is collected a first time from the provider of the goods or service, since he included it on the invoice he issued, then a second time from the purchaser, in situations in which national legislation does not provide for the possibility of adjusting the value added tax where there is a tax adjustment notice.
