24The Court has already held, in relation to Decision 88/408 (which the Directive replaced) that the fact that a decision allows the Member States to which it is addressed to derogate from clear and precise provisions contained therein does not in itself deprive those provisions of direct effect and that, in particular, such provisions may have direct effect where recourse to the possibilities of derogation thus provided for is subject to judicial review (Case C-156/91 Hansa Fleisch [1992] ECR I-5567, paragraph 15).
