66It follows that the provisions of the NCRF do not preclude the conduct of a fee-based selection procedure for the allocation of radio frequencies, provided, however, that that procedure is based on objective, transparent, non-discriminatory and proportionate criteria, and that it is in conformity with the objectives laid down in Article 8(2) to (4) of the Framework Directive. It is for the referring court to ascertain whether the selection procedure at issue in the main proceedings is in conformity with those requirements. The Court may nevertheless provide it with all the guidance on points of interpretation which may be of assistance to it to that end.
