      Questions referred
   
   
               1.
            
            
               Must point 6 in Part A of Annex III in connection with Article 7(2)(c) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1408/71 on the application of social security schemes to employed persons, to self-employed persons and to members of their families moving within the Community, (1) according to which the criterion for determining the successor state competent to take into account the insurance period completed by employed persons up to 31 December 1992 in the social security system of the former Czech and Slovak Federal Republic is to remain applicable, be interpreted as precluding the application of a rule of national law according to which a Czech social security institution is to take into account fully, with regard to the entitlement to a benefit and the fixing of the amount thereof, the insurance period completed in the territory of the former Czech and Slovak Federal Republic up to 31 December 1992, even though, according to the above mentioned criterion, it is a social security institution of the Slovak Republic which is competent to take it into account?
            
         
               2.
            
            
               If the first question is answered in the negative, must Article 12 of the Treaty establishing the European Community in conjunction with Articles 3(1), 10 and 46 of the Council Regulation (EEC) No 1408/71 on the application of social security schemes to employed persons, to self-employed persons and to members of their families moving within the Community be interpreted as precluding that the insurance period completed in the social security system of the former Czech and Slovak Federal Republic up to 31 December 1992, which has already been taken into account once to the same extent for benefit purposes in the social security system of the Slovak Republic, be, pursuant to the above mentioned national rule, taken fully into account, with regard to the entitlement to old age benefit and the fixing of the amount thereof, only in respect of nationals of the Czech Republic resident in its territory?
