The UK and the ECJ
Article 234
Supervisory role of the ECJ
Article 234 provides that any court or tribunal in a member state may refer a question on EU law to the ECJ if it considers that a decision on that question is necessary to enable it to give judgement. ...
One of the main functions of the ECJ is to give definitive interpretations of European Law. ... The national court will then decide the case in light of the ruling from the ECJ. This emphasises that while it is the ECJ that interprets European Law, it is the national courts of the Member States that apply it. ... where the disputed point of European law is material to the decision, the national court has a discretion to refer that point to the ECJ (Van Duyn v Home Office (1974).
