Questions referred

1.

Is the authorisation provided by Article 1(2) of Legislative Decree No 212 of 24 April 2001, within the meaning conferred on it by the national case-law, compatible with the rules in Directive 2001/18/EC (1) or does it conflict with those rules?

2.

In particular, where the Member State makes the cultivation of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) subject to authorisation specifically aimed at protecting the so-called principle of coexistence, is that specific authorisation necessary also for GMOs which are already listed in the common catalogue?

(1)  Directive 2001/18/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 12 March 2001 on the deliberate release into the environment of genetically modified organisms and repealing Council Directive 90/220/EEC (OJ 2001 L 106, p. 1).
