28In that regard, it should be noted that it is for the referring court alone to determine the subject-matter of the questions it intends to refer to the Court. It is solely for the national courts before which actions are brought, and which must bear the responsibility for the subsequent judicial decision, to determine, in the light of the special features of each case, both the need for a preliminary ruling in order to enable them to deliver judgment and the relevance of the questions which they submit to the Court (see Case C-159/97 Castelletti [1999] ECR I-1597, paragraph 14; Case C-154/05 Kersbergen-Lap and Dams-Schipper [2006] ECR I-6249, paragraph 21; and Case C-321/03 Dyson [2007] ECR I-687, paragraph 23).
