   Questions referred
   
               1.
            
            
               Can Articles 82 and 86 of the EC Treaty be interpreted so as also to include within their scope the activity of a legal person which has the status of national representative of the Fédération Internationale de Motocyclisme (the International Motorcycling Federation) and engages in economic activity as described above by entering into sponsorship, advertising and insurance contracts, in the context of the organisation of motor sport events by it?
            
         
               2.
            
            
               Should the answer be in the affirmative, is Article 49 of Law 2696/1999, which, in relation to issue by the competent national public authority (in the present case, the Ministry for Public Order) of permission to organise a motor-vehicle competition, gives the foregoing legal person the power to provide a concurring opinion as to the holding of the competition without that power being made subject to restrictions, obligations and review, compatible with those provisions of the Treaty?
