Are Article 2(1)(c) of Directive 75/363/EEC, (1) as amended by Directive 82/76/EEC, (2) and the annex referred to therein to be interpreted as precluding a provision of national law, such as that applicable in the main proceedings, which makes disbursement of the remuneration for doctors studying to become specialists subject to presentation of a declaration by the recipient doctor undertaking to work for at least five years in the public health service of the Autonomous Province of Bolzano/Bozen within ten years of completing training as a specialist and which, in the event of a total failure to honour that undertaking, expressly permits the Autonomous Province of Bolzano/Bozen, as the body funding the remuneration, to reclaim up to 70 % of the allowance paid together with statutory interest calculated from the moment at which the administration paid each individual instalment? |

If the first question is answered in the negative: does the principle of freedom of movement for workers under Article 45 TFEU preclude a provision of national law, such as that applicable in the main proceedings, which makes disbursement of the remuneration for doctors studying to become specialists subject to presentation of a declaration by the recipient doctor undertaking to work for at least five years in the public health service of the Autonomous Province of Bolzano/Bozen within ten years of completing training as a specialist and which, in the event of a total failure to honour that undertaking, expressly permits the Autonomous Province of Bolzano/Bozen, as the body funding the remuneration, to reclaim up to 70 % of the allowance paid together with statutory interest calculated from the moment at which the administration paid each individual instalment? |
