   Oberlandesgericht Düsseldorf
   
      Parties to the main proceedings
   
   
      Applicant: Deutsche Parkinson Vereinigung e.V.
   
      Defendant: Zentrale zur Bekämpfung unlauteren Wettbewerbs e.V.
   
      Questions referred
   
   
               1.
            
            
               Must Article 34 TFEU be interpreted as meaning that a system of fixed prices laid down by national law applicable to prescription-only medicinal products constitutes a measure having equivalent effect within the meaning of Article 34 TFEU?
            
         
               2.
            
            
               If the Court answers Question 1 in the affirmative:
               Is the system of fixed prices for prescription-only medicinal products justified under to Article 36 TFEU on grounds of the protection of health and life of humans if that system is the only means of ensuring a consistent supply of medicinal products to the population across the whole of Germany, in particular in rural areas?
            
         
               3.
            
            
               If the Court also answers Question 2 in the affirmative:
               What is the degree of judicial scrutiny required when determining whether the condition mentioned in Question 2 is in fact satisfied?
