29Finally, just as in the case of Article 37(1) of the Association Agreement with Poland, the words ‘[s]ubject to the conditions and modalities applicable in each Member State’ in Article 38(1) of the Association Agreement with Slovakia cannot be interpreted in such a way as to allow Member States to make the application of the principle of nondiscrimination set out in that provision subject to conditions or discretionary limitations inasmuch as such an interpretation would render that provision meaningless and deprive it of any practical effect (Pokrzeptowicz-Meyer, paragraphs 20 to 24).
