31Thirdly, it must be determined whether the restriction on the freedoms guaranteed by Articles 49 TFEU and 56 TFEU, constituted by the provision at issue in the main proceedings, may be allowed as a derogation, on grounds of public policy, public security or public health, as expressly provided for under Articles 51 TFEU and Article 52 TFEU, which are also applicable in the area of freedom to provide services by virtue of Article 62 TFEU or, if the referring court finds that that provision is applied in a non-discriminatory manner, whether it is justified by overriding reasons in the public interest (see, to that effect, judgment in Digibet and Albers, C‑156/13, EU:C:2014:1756, paragraph 22 and the case-law cited), such as consumer protection and the prevention of both fraud and incitement to squander money on gambling (judgment in HIT and HIT LARIX. C‑176/11, EU:C:2012:454, paragraph 21 and the case-law cited).
