86Finally, the Netherlands, German and Italian Governments observe that in its case-law the Court has recognised that a Member State is entitled to take measures designed to prevent certain of its nationals from attempting, under cover of the rights created by the Treaty, improperly to circumvent their national legislation or to prevent individuals from improperly or fraudulently taking advantage of provisions of Community law (Centros, paragraph 24, and the case-law cited therein). Whether or not there is any improper use must be determined taking into account, in particular, the objectives pursued by the provisions of Community law in question (Case C-206/94 Paletta [1996] ECR I-2357, paragraph 25).
