    Reference for a preliminary ruling from the Oberverwaltungsgericht Berlin-Brandenburg (Germany) lodged on 11 May 2011 — Leyla Ecem Demirkan v Federal Republic of Germany

    (Case C-221/11)

    (2011/C 232/25)

    Language of the case: German

    Referring court

    Oberverwaltungsgericht Berlin-Brandenburg

    Parties to the main proceedings

    Applicant: Leyla Ecem Demirkan

    Defendant: Federal Republic of Germany

    Questions referred

    1.

    Does the passive freedom to provide services also fall within the scope of the concept of freedom to provide services within the meaning of Article 41(1) of the Additional Protocol to the Agreement establishing an Association between the European Economic Community and Turkey of 23 November 1970 (1) (Additional Protocol)?

    2.

    In the event that the first question is answered in the affirmative: does the protection of the passive freedom to provide services under the law on the Association Agreement, specifically pursuant to Article 41(1) of the Additional Protocol, also extend to Turkish nationals, who — like the claimant — do not wish to enter the Federal Republic of Germany in order to receive a specific service, but for the purposes of visiting relatives for a stay of up to three months and rely on the mere possibility of receiving services in the Federal territory?
