Internal and External Limits of the Principle of Consistent Interpretation of Domestic Law with the Directives of the European Union and Th eir Relevance for the Adjudication of the Administrative Courts

Journal Title: Białostockie Studia Prawnicze - Year 2018, Vol 0, Issue 23

Abstract

Th is article examines the issues of external and internal limits of the consistent interpretation of the domestic law with the EU directives in the context of verifi cation adjudication of the administrative courts. Th e external limits of the pro-directive interpretation are derived from the EU law and the case-law of the Court of Justice of the EU. Th e limits of the pro-directive interpretation can as well be derived from the domestic law of the member states (the internal limits). Th is kind of limitations is strictly connected with domestic limits of the judicial interpretation. In the considerations it is argued that the pro-directive interpretation which goes beyond the literal meaning of domestic provisions could not be treated as being contrary to the domestic law. In the case-law of administrative courts the necessity of functional, purposive and axiological meaning of the contra legem limit is especially signifi cant. It is justifi ed to state that consistent interpretation must embrace operations of interpretation secundum legem and praeter legem. Therefore, the domestic contra legem limit is shaped and modifi ed by the EU rules of interpretation.
