19As the Advocate General points out in paragraph 23 of his Opinion, Silhouette's objection amounts to a criticism of the assessment of the facts and the application of national law by the Landesgericht. However, the Court has consistently held that it is for the national courts to furnish it with the factual and legal information necessary to give useful answers to the questions they submit to it. According to that same case-law, it is for the national court to interpret the national provisions at issue. The Court cannot therefore substitute its own judgment for that of the national court as regards the question whether those provisions apply in the case before it.
