14The provisions of Title II constitute a complete system of conflict rules the effect of which is to divest the legislature of each Member State of the power to determine the ambit and the conditions for the application of its national legislation so far as the persons who are subject thereto and the territory within which the provisions of national law take effect are concerned. A.s the Court pointed out in its judgments of 23 September 1982 in Case 267/81 (Kuijpers, cited above), and Case 275/81 (Kocks [1982] ECR 3013), ‘the Member States are [not] entitled to determine the extent to which their own legislation or that of another Member State is applicable’ since they are ‘under an obligation to comply with the provisions of Community law in force’ (see the judgment of 12 June 1986 in Case 302/84 Ten Holder [1986] ECR 1821).
