29It must be noted that even though, strictly speaking, the national court has directed its reference for a preliminary ruling solely to the interpretation of freedom of establishment and the free movement of capital, the Court is not thereby precluded from providing the national court with all those elements for the interpretation of Community law which may be of assistance in adjudicating on the case pending before it, whether or not that court has specifically referred to them in its questions (see, to that effect, Case C-241/89 SARPP [1990] ECR I-4695, paragraph 8; Case C-315/92 Verband Sozialer Wettbewerb (Clinique) [1994] ECR I-317, paragraph 7; Case C-87/97 Consorzio per la tutela del formaggio Gorgonzola [1999] ECR I-1301, paragraph 16; and Case C-387/01 Weigel [2004] ECR I-4981, paragraph 44).
