194In that regard, while it is true that questions referred for a preliminary ruling on EU law enjoy a presumption of relevance (judgment of 28 July 2011, Lidl & Companhia, C‑106/10, EU:C:2011:526, paragraph 25 and the case-law cited), it must be emphasised that, in accordance with settled case-law, the justification for a reference for a preliminary ruling is not that it enables advisory opinions on general or hypothetical questions to be delivered but rather that it is necessary for the effective resolution of a dispute (judgment of 20 January 2005, García Blanco, C‑225/02, EU:C:2005:34, paragraph 28 and the case‑law cited).
