Operative part of the judgment
|
1. |
EU law does not require a national court to interpret, in accordance with Council Directive 2009/133/EC of 19 October 2009 on the common system of taxation applicable to mergers, divisions, partial divisions, transfers of assets and exchanges of shares concerning companies of different Member States and to the transfer of the registered office of an SE or SCE between Member States, a provision of national legislation applicable to a purely domestic merger of two undertakings, each having their registered office in the same Member State, as that operation does not come within the scope of that directive. |
|
2. |
The Court does not have jurisdiction to answer the questions referred regarding the interpretation of Directive 2009/133, as the facts of the dispute in the main proceedings do not come within its scope and, moreover, domestic law has not made it applicable to those facts directly and unconditionally. |
