33So far as concerns the other grounds for inadmissibility pleaded by Mr Stauderer, deriving from national law, it should be pointed out, first, that under Article 234 EC the Court is to have jurisdiction to give preliminary rulings concerning questions of Community law referred to it by a court or tribunal of one of the Member States. That procedure is not concerned with the interpretation of national laws or regulations. Any inaccuracies in the description of the relevant national provisions given by the national court in its judgment requesting a preliminary ruling cannot have the effect of depriving the Court of jurisdiction to reply to the question referred to it by the national court (see, in particular, Joined Cases 209/84 to 213/84 Asjes and Others [1986] ECR 1425, paragraph 12).
