Language of the case: Italian

Referring court

Tribunale di Santa Maria Capua Vetere

Parties to the main proceedings

Applicant: Public Prosecutor’s Office

Defendant: Raffaele Russo

Questions referred

Can freedom of establishment and freedom to provide services be restricted in a national system founded on the grant of a limited number of licences and consequently of police authorisations which, inter alia:

1.

tends generally to protect holders of licences issued at an earlier period following a tendering procedure which unlawfully excluded some operators;

2.

actually safeguards acquired rights (prohibiting new licensees from locating their kiosks within a specified distance of those already in existence);

3.

provides that the licence may lapse, including where the licence holder carries on, even indirectly, cross-border gaming activities analogous to those under the licence, with the consequent forfeiture of appreciable guarantee deposits?
