(Case E-3/01)

(2001/C 237/04)

An Advisory Opinion is to be sought from the EFTA Court regarding the following:

1. Is Article 1(1) of Council Directive 77/187/EEC to be interpreted to the effect that the conversion of a State-owned entity into a wholly State-owned limited company constitutes a transfer within the meaning of that provision?

2. Is Article 3(1) of Council Directive 77/187/EEC to be interpreted as prohibiting the provision, in an employment contract which is concluded in connection with a transfer within the meaning of Article 1(1) of the Directive, of less advantageous terms regarding termination of employment as compared with those enjoyed by the employee prior to the date of the transfer?
