33So far as concerns the concerns expressed by the referring court relating to possible adverse environmental consequences of an annulment of the domestic law provisions held to be incompatible with EU law, it is apparent from paragraphs 66 and 67 of the judgment of 8 September 2010 in Winner Wetten (C‑409/06, EU:C:2010:503) that the Court alone may, exceptionally and for overriding considerations of legal certainty, grant a provisional suspension of the ousting effect which a rule of EU law has on national law that is contrary thereto. If national courts had the power to give national provisions primacy in relation to EU law contrary to those national provisions, even provisionally, the uniform application of EU law would be damaged.
