      Question referred
   
   The Tribunal da Relação de Lisboa asks the ECJ:
   
               —
            
            
               whether a bank guarantee, provided in order to obtain an advance on export refunds, may not be enforced where it is only during inspections carried out after the actual export and customs clearance of the goods at issue that it is established that ‘other conditions’ have not yet been satisfied;
            
         
               —
            
            
               or whether, on the contrary, such a guarantee may be enforced where the ‘other conditions’ are not satisfied, even if that fact is established only after customs clearance.
