Judgment_paragraph 62 · European Commission v Hungary (C-171/17)

62In that regard, it must be stated, however, that, contrary to Hungary’s submissions, that provision does not automatically exclude SGEIs from the scope of Article 15 of Directive 2006/123. Article 15(4) of that directive provides that paragraphs 1, 2 and 3 of that article are to apply to legislation in the field of SGEIs only to the extent that their application does not obstruct the performance, in law and in fact, of the particular task assigned to them.
