Consequently, a national rule under which entitlement to arrears of remuneration is restricted to the two years preceding the date on which the proceedings were instituted is not in itself open to criticism.
Præjudiciel »Fri udveksling af tjenesteydelser garanti stillet af et kreditinstitut med henblik på at råde over den nødvendige garanti til udøvelse af sin medlemsstat virksomhed«
the Chairman of the Industrial Tribunal acknowledged that Mrs Levez was not entitled to arrears of pay in respect of the period prior to 17 September 1991, that being the date marking the start of the two-year period prior to the lodging of her claim.
Da Tribunal de grande instance de Metz fandt, at en fortolkning af de forskellige bestemmelser i fællesskabsretten var nødvendig for at afgøre sagerne mod André Ambry, besluttede den at udsætte sagen og forelægge Domstolen et præjudicielt spørgsmål.
Mrs Levez appealed to the Employment Appeal Tribunal against the Tribunal's decision which decided to stay proceedings and to refer two questions to the Court of Justice for a preliminary ruling.
Dette spørgsmål er blevet rejst i en straffesag anlagt mod direktør André Ambry, som er tiltalt for at have medvirket ved eller udøvet en aktivitet med tilknytning til organisering og salg af rejser eller ophold uden det næringsbrev, som kræves medfør af artikel 4 i den franske lov nr. 92.645 af 13. juli 1992 om fastsættelse af betingelserne for af udøve virksomhed vedrørende organisering og salg af rejser eller ophold.
The first question referred by the national court must be construed as seeking to ascertain whether Community law precludes the application of a rule of national law which limits an employee's entitlement to arrears of remuneration or damages for breach of the principle of equal pay to a period of two years prior to the date on which the proceedings were instituted, there being no possibility of extending that period, where the delay in bringing a claim is attributable to the fact that the employer deliberately misrepresented to the employee the level of remuneration received by persons of the opposite sex performing like work.
Det bemærkes, at direktivets artikel 7 pålægger medlemsstaterne en forpligtelse til at fastsætte bestemmelser om ydelse af garantier med henblik på at sikre forbrugerne tilbagebetaling eller hjemtransport i tilfælde af insolvens eller konkurs hos den rejsearrangør, de har købt rejsen af.
Where an employer provides an employee with inaccurate information as to the level of remuneration received by employees of the opposite sex performing like work, the employee so informed has no way of determining whether he is being discriminated against or, if so, to what extent.
Denne bestemmelse bør fortolkes således, at den fastsætter et mål, som indebærer, at der tillægges deltageren i en pakkerejse hjemtransport og ret til garanti for tilbagebetaling af erlagte beløb med henblik på at beskytte forbrugeren.
Consequently, by relying on the rule at issue in that situation, the employer would be able to deprive his employee of the means provided for by the Directive of enforcing the principle of equal pay before the courts.
Desuden fremgår det af samme direktivs artikel 8, at forpligtelsen til at indføre de omtalte garantier, i lighed med direktivets andre beskyttelsesregler, udgør en minimumsbetingelse.
The first point to note is that, according to established case-law, in the absence of Community rules governing the matter it is for the domestic legal system of each Member State to designate the courts and tribunals having jurisdiction and to lay down the detailed procedural rules governing actions for safeguarding rights which individuals derive from Community law, provided, however, that such rules are not less favourable than those governing similar domestic actions (the principle of equivalence) and do not render virtually impossible or excessively difficult the exercise of rights conferred by Community law (the principle of effectiveness).
omtvistede lovgivning, udelukkende vedrører tilfælde, hvor der er tale om hjemtransport af rejsende og ikke de andre ydelser, som er omfattet af artikel 7 i direktiv 90/314.
breach of Community law by an employer whose deceit caused the employee's delay in bringing proceedings for enforcement of the principle of equal pay.
Imidlertid gælder forpligtelsen til at indgå en tillægsaftale for samtlige garantier, som stilles af kreditinstitutter eller forsikringsselskaber beliggende i andre medlemsstater.
In order to determine whether the principle of equivalence has been complied with in the present case, the national court - which alone has direct knowledge of the procedural rules governing actions in the field of employment law — must consider both the purpose and the essential characteristics of allegedly similar domestic actions.
I henhold til den omtvistede lovgivning er det kun nødvendigt at udfærdige én kontrakt, når der i henhold til artikel 7 i direktiv 90/314 stilles garanti af et pengeinstitut beliggende i Frankrig, hvorimod disse garantier, når de stilles af et pengeinstitut beliggende i en anden medlemsstat, skal være ledsaget af en tillægsaftale, som indebærer, at der stilles yderligere garantier af et pengeinstitut, som er beliggende i Frankrig.
The second question should be construed as seeking to ascertain whether Community law precludes the application of the rule at issue even when another remedy is available but, compared with other domestic actions which may be regarded as similar, is likely to entail procedural rules or other conditions which are less favourable.
Det følger heraf, at forpligtelsen til at indgå en tillægsaftale med et pengeinstitut beliggende i Frankrig overskrider de foranstaltninger, der er nødvendige for at opfylde det tilsigtede mål, for så vidt som den omfatter andre tilfælde end hjemtransport.
It is there suggested that claims similar to those based on the Act may include those linked to breach of a contract of employment, to discrimination in terms of pay on grounds of race, to unlawful deductions from wages or to sex discrimination in matters other than pay.
Del må fastslås, at sidstnævnte krav for det første virker restriktivt og afskrækkende over for pengeinstitutter i andre medlemsstater, idet det forhindrer dem i direkte og på egen hånd at stille de krævede garantier overfor rejsearrangøren på samme vilkår som en garant beliggende i Frankrig.
If it transpires that a claim under the Act which is brought before the County Court is similar to one or more of the forms of action listed by the national court, it would remain for that court to determine whether the first-mentioned form of action is governed by procedural rules or other requirements which are less favourable.
Det fremgår således af sagen, at forpligtelsen til omgående at frigive midlerne almindeligvis kan opfyldes forsvarligt, selv om garantien er stillet i en anden medlemsstat.
In view of the explanations given by the United Kingdom Government, it must be held that, where an employee can rely on the rights derived from Article 119 of the Treaty and the Directive before another court, the rule at issue does not compromise the principle of effectiveness.
Under alle omstændigheder bemærkes, at den omtvistede lovgivning end ikke giver mulighed for, at rejsearrangøren kan godtgøre, at han er i stand til at frigøre de midler, som er dækket af garantierne, inden for en i denne lovgivning opstillet frist.
It remains to be determined whether, in the circumstances of the case before the national court, proceedings such as those which may be brought before the County Court comply with the principle of equivalence.
Kravet er endvidere af en sådan art, at det kan afholde rejsearrangøren fra at henvende sig til et pengeinstitut beliggende i en anden medlemsstat. Ligeledes vil sidstnævntes forpligtelse til at indgå en anden aftale kunne medføre yderligere udgifter, som almindeligvis vil blive pålagt rejsearrangøren.
In principle, it is for the national courts to ascertain whether the procedural rules intended to ensure that the rights derived by individuals from Community law are safeguarded under national law comply with the principle of equivalence.
Under disse omstændigheder bemærkes, at en lovgivning som den i hovedsagen omhandlede, der stiller krav om, at pengeinstitutter indgår en tillægsaftale, udgør en begrænsning i den fri udveksling af tjenesteydelser i henhold til traktatens artikel 59 og direktiv 89/646 og 92/49.
On that point, it is appropriate to consider whether, in order fully to assert rights conferred by Community law before the County Court, an employee in circumstances such as those of Mrs Levez will incur additional costs and delay by comparison with a claimant who, because he is relying on what may be regarded as a similar right under domestic law, may bring an action before the Industrial Tribunal, which is simpler and, in principle, less costly.

Generaladvokat J. Mischo fremsatte forslag til afgørelse i retsmødet (Domstolens plenum) den 14. maj 1998.
Advocate General P. Léger delivered his Opinion at the sitting of the Full Court on 12 May 1998.
Han foreslog heri følgende besvarelse:
He proposed that the Court reply to the Employment Appeal Tribunal as follows:
»Princippet om fri udveksling af tjenesteydelser, således som dette fremgår af EF-traktatens artikel 59 og af Rådets andet direktiv 89/646/EØF af 15. december 1989 om samordning af lovgivningen om adgang til at optage og udøve virksomhed som kreditinstitut og om ændring af direktiv 77/780/EØF og Rådels direktiv 92/49/EØF af 18. juni 1992 om samordning af love og administrative bestemmelser vedrørende direkte forsikringsvirksomhed, bortset fra livsforsikring, og om ændring af direktiv 73/239/EØF og 88/357/EØF (tredje 'skadesforsikringsdirektiv'), er til hinder for en national ordning som den, der i Frankrig følger af artikel 14 i dekret nr. 94/490 - hvorefter det for så vidt angår den garanti, som rejsebureauer skal stille, altid i tilfælde af en finansiel garanti gennem et kreditinstitut eller et forsikringsselskab, der er etableret i en anden medlemsstat, forudsættes, at der er indgået en aftale om sikkerhed for hjemtransport af rejsende mellem kautionisten og et kreditinstitut eller et forsikringsselskab, der er etableret i landet.«
(1) Community law, in particular Article 119 of the EC Treaty, precludes the application, to a claim for arrears of remuneration in reliance on the principle of equal pay for men and women in respect of the same work, of a national rule of procedure which limits the period prior to the lodging of that claim in respect of which the arrears due may be obtained, where that rule is less favourable than those governing similar domestic actions for recovery of salary arrears in reliance on provisions of national law, in particular employment law.

Spørgsmålet er rejst under en sag mellem Ecotrade Sri (herefter »Ecotrade«), et kapitalselskab, der driver virksomhed med
By judgment of 19 December 1996, received at the Court on 24 December 1996, the Tribunal de Grande Instance (Regional Court), Metz, referred to the Court for a preliminary ruling a question on the interpretation of Articles 59 and 73b of the EC Treaty, of Council Directive 73/183/EEC of 28 June 1973 on the abolition of restrictions on freedom of establishment and freedom to provide services in respect of
som uforeneligt med fællesmarkedet for kul og stål - tilskud eller anden støtte ydet af staterne, i hvilken som helst form dette sker.
It is also clear from Article 8 of that directive that, like the other protective rules contained therein, the obligation to make provision for such security constitutes a minimum obligation.
Da denne gæld ikke er blevet betalt, har Pretore di Trieste den 30. juli 1992 besluttet, at AFS skal overdrage en udestående fordring på en bank til Ecotrade til dækning af det skyldige beløb.
That question was raised in criminal proceedings brought against Mr Ambry, the manager of a company, who was charged with having assisted or engaged in an activity relating to the organisation and sale of travel and holidays without having obtained the licence required by Article 4 of French Law No 92/645 of 13 July 1992 laying down the conditions for the exercise of activities relating to the organisation and sale of travel or holidays.
Kommissionens beslutning nr. 3855/91/EKSF af 27. november 1991 om fællesskabsregler for støtte til jern- og stålindustrien, der trådte i kraft den 1. januar 1992 og anvendtes til den 31. december 1996, tillod dog ydelse af støtte til jernog stålindustrien i udtømmende opregnede tilfælde.
There is therefore nothing to prevent Member States from providing that the security in question must not only exist but must also be immediately available for payment if required for the repatriation of travellers, provided that they do so in conformity with the Treaty, and in particular with Article 59.
Den 28. august 1992 meddelte AFS Ecotrade, at det var blevet sat under særlig administration ved ministerielt dekret af 23. juli 1992, jf. lov nr. 95/79 af 3. april 1979 (herefter »lov nr. 95/79«), med tilladelse til fortsættelse af virksomhedens drift, og anmodede om tilbagebetaling af det pågældende beløb med henvisning til, at tvangsinddrivclse af fordringen var i strid med artikel 4 i lov nr. 544/81 af 2. oktober 1981, som forbyder individuel kreditorforfølgning efter, at der er indledt procedure om særlig administration.
Mr Ambry applied to the Préfet for the Moselle for a licence, which was refused on the ground that the compulsory security required for him to carry on business as a travel agent did not meet the requirements of Article 14 of Decree No 94/490 since it was provided by an Italian finance company, Compagnia Cauzioni SpA, whose registered office was in Rome and which had not concluded an agreement with a credit institution or insurance company established in France.
Støttebegrebet er mere generelt end tilskudsbegrebet, fordi det ikke blot omfatter positive ydelser såsom selve tilskuddene, men ligeledes de indgreb, der under forskellige former letter de byrder, som normalt belaster en virksomheds budget.
Under the contested legislation where the security required by Article 7 of Directive 90/314 is arranged with a financial institution situated in France, only one contract is required, whereas, if it is arranged with a financial institution situated in another Member State, it must be backed by a supplementary agreement in the form of a further guarantee provided by a financial institution situated in France.
Den 4. oktober 1992 har Ecotrade anlagt sag ved Tribunale di Trieste med påstand om, at AFS' krav om tilbagebetaling kendes uberettiget, da det støttes på et ministerielt dekret, der er strid med fællesskabsrettens bestemmelser om statsstøtte.
Since it considered that an interpretation of various provisions of Community law was necessary in order to determine whether the charges against Mr Ambry were well founded, the Tribunal de Grande Instance, Metz, stayed proceedings in order to refer a question to the Court for a preliminary ruling.
Afgørelsen blev stadfæstet ved Corte d'Appelo di Trieste's dom af 27. januar 1996. Ecotrade har herefter anket denne dom til Corte suprema di Cassazione.
That requirement has the effect, first and foremost, of restricting and discouraging financial institutions established in other Member States, inasmuch as it prevents them from offering the security required directly to the travel organiser on the same basis as a guarantor situated in France.
Lov nr. 95/79 kan finde anvendelse på en selektiv måde til fordel for store, kriseramte industrivirksomheder, hvis gæld til visse kategorier af kreditorer, hovedsagelig offentlige, er særlig stor.
It is also likely to discourage the travel operator from approaching a financial institution situated in another Member State, since the fact that such an institution must enter into a further guarantee agreement is liable to give rise to additional costs which would normally be passed on to the travel operator.
Indledningsvis bemærkes, at AFS driver virksomhed med en produktion inden for jernog stålindustrien og er en virksomhed i den forstand, hvori udtrykket er anvendt i EKSF-traktatens artikel 80. Følgelig henhører det af den forelæggende ret stillede spørgsmål under EKSF-traktaten.
The question referred for a preliminary ruling must be understood to be seeking to ascertain whether it is contrary to Article 59 of the Treaty, to Directives 89/646 and 92/49 or to Article 73b of the Treaty for national rules such as those in issue in the main proceedings to require, with a view to implementing Article 7 of Directive 90/314, that, where financial security is provided by a credit institution or insurance company situated in another Member State, the guarantor must conclude an additional agreement with a credit institution or insurance company situated in France.
Industriministerens beslutninger om at stille en kriseramt virksomhed under særlig administration og at tillade den at videreføre sin aktivitet træffes tillige af hensyn til ønsket om, ud fra nationale industripolitiske hensyn, at bevare virksomhedens økonomiske aktivitet.
Consequently, rules such as those in issue in the main proceedings, which require financial institutions situated in another Member State to conclude an additional agreement, must be held to constitute a restriction on the freedom to provide services laid down by Article 59 of the Treaty and by Directives 89/646 and 92/49.
Den forelæggende ret spørger med sit spørgsmål nærmere bestemt, om anvendelsen på en virksomhed i den forstand, hvori udtrykket er anvendt i EKSF-traktatens artikel 80, af en ordning som den, der er indført ved lov nr. 95/79, og som fraviger fællesskabsrettens bestemmelser om konkurs, skal anses for at give anledning til tildeling af en statsstøtte, der er forbudt i henhold til EKSF-traktatens artikel 4, litra c).
In that regard, it must be pointed out that the need for the funds to be made immediately available as required by the rules in issue is relevant only to the repatriation of travellers and not to the other matters covered by the security provided for by Article 7 of Directive 90/314.
Under disse omstændigheder, og under hensyntagen til den type virksomheder, der er omfattet af den omtvistede ordning, samt til udstrækningen af den skønsbeføjelse, som ministeren råder over, navnlig når han tillader, at en insolvent virksomhed under særlig administration viderefører sine aktiviteter, opfylder den omhandlede ordning betingelsen om specificitet, der er en af begrebet statsstøttes kendetegn.
Article 7 of Directive 90/314 requires Member States to provide for security for the refund of money paid over, or for the repatriation of consumers, in the event of the insolvency of the operator from whom they bought the travel.
Ifølge EKSF-traktatens artikel 4, litra c), ophæves og forbydes inden for Fællesskabet -
That provision must be interpreted as prescribing a result whereby package travellers enjoy rights guaranteeing their repatriation and the refund of money that they have paid over, the aim being that of consumer protection.
betaling af selskabsskat, fritagelse for forpligtelsen til betaling af bøder pålagt som følge af manglende betaling af socialbidrag, samt anvendelsen af en præferencesats ved overdragelse af hele eller en del af virksomheden, idet overdragelsen er pålagt en fast registreringsafgift på 1 mio. ITL, hvorimod den almindelige registreringsafgift udgør 3% af værdien af de overdragne genstande.
The requirement that an additional agreement be entered into applies, however, to all securities provided by credit institutions or insurance companies situated in other Member States.
Imidlertid vil en tilladelse til at videreføre de økonomiske aktiviteter under sådanne omstændigheder — når henses til fordringernes prioritet i forbindelse med aktiviteternes videreførelse — kunne medføre en supplerende byrde for de offentlige myndigheder, hvis det faktisk blev konstateret, at staten eller offentlige organer figurerede blandt den kriseramte virksomheds hovedkreditorer, i det omfang denne skylder betydelige summer.
Consequently, in so far as the requirement of an additional agreement concluded with a financial institution situated in France applies also in cases other than repatriation, it is not commensurate with the objective pursued.
Sådanne fordele, der er indrømmet af den nationale lovgiver, vil ligeledes kunne indebære en supplerende byrde for de offentlige myndigheder i form af en statslig kaution, et afkald på offentlige fordringer, en fritagelse for forpligtelsen til betaling af bøder samt en nedsat skattesats.
Finally, as regards the argument that it is impossible to ensure, in the other Member States, the same degree of effectiveness as is provided by certain administrative measures or judicial decisions within France, it must be borne in mind that, even if some administrative measures cannot be enforced in the same way against undertakings situated in other Member States, it is always possible to make use of the urgent legal procedures which exist in all the Member States of the Community.
Det kan kun forholde sig anderledes, hvis det godtgøres, at den særlige administration og videreførelsen af virksomhedens økonomiske aktivitet ikke vil medføre en supplerende byrde for staten i forhold til det, der ville følge af anvendelsen af de almindelige bestemmelser om konkurs.
The effectiveness of the decisions taken on such procedures will depend on the substance of the guarantee agreement concluded between the financial institution situated in another Member State and the travel agent.
Det tilkommer den forelæggende undersøge disse anbringender.
It appears that the requirement that funds must be available for immediate payment can normally be met adequately even where the guarantor is established in another Member State.
