    Questions referred

    1.

    Is Directive 82/76, (1) which amended Directives 75/362 (2) and 75/363, (3) to be interpreted as including within its scope full-time and part-time courses for trainee medical specialists which had already begun by 31 December 1982 and continued after that date, that being the date by which the Member States were to have adopted the necessary measures to comply with the directive, in accordance with Article 16 thereof?

    If Question 1 is answered in the affirmative,

    2.

    Is the annex which was appended to the ‘coordination’ directive (Directive 75/363) by Article 13 of Directive 82/76, which amended Directives 75/362 and 75/363, to be interpreted as meaning that, with respect to specialist training courses which had already begun by 31 December 1982, the obligation to provide trainee specialists with adequate remuneration is dependent on fulfilment of the obligation to reorganise courses or on compliance with the requirements of the abovementioned directives?

    3.

    With respect to specialist doctors who pursued specialist training courses which began before 1 January 1983 but had not ended by that date, was there any obligation to pay them adequate remuneration for the entire duration of the course or for the period after 31 December 1982 alone and, if so, to what conditions, if any, was that obligation subject?
