33While it is true that considerations of an administrative nature cannot justify a derogation by a Member State from the rules of EU law (judgment in Terhoeve, C‑18/95, EU:C:1999:22, paragraph 45), it is also clear from the Court’s case-law that Member States cannot be denied the possibility of attaining legitimate objectives through the introduction of rules which are easily managed and supervised by the competent authorities (see judgments in Commission v Italy, C‑110/05, EU:C:2009:66, paragraph 67; in Josemans, C‑137/09, EU:C:2010:774, paragraph 82; and in Commission v Spain, C‑400/08, EU:C:2011:172, paragraph 124).
