20The national court expressly rejects the argument put forward by the defendant in the main proceedings that the classification of the activity in question as economic could legitimately be contested, since it is an activity for countering unemployment which may fall within the exercise of public power. In this respect the national court refers to the judgments of the Court in Case C-29/91 Redmond Stichting [1992] ECR I-3189 (concerning assistance to drug addicts), Joined Cases C-173/96 and C-247/96 Hidalgo and Others [1998] ECR I-8237 (concerning home help) and Case C-175/99 Mayeur [2000] ECR I-7755.
