161In those circumstances, while the differences between the recruitment procedures for magistrates and ordinary judges do not necessarily require that magistrates be deprived of paid annual leave corresponding to that provided for ordinary judges, those differences and in particular the special importance attributed by the national judicial order and, more particularly, by the first paragraph of Article 106 of the Italian Constitution, to the competitions specifically designed for the recruitment of ordinary judges, nevertheless appear to indicate that the tasks that the latter must carry out are of a particular nature and the qualifications required for the performance of those tasks are of a different level. In any event, it is for the referring court to assess, to that end, the available qualitative and quantitative evidence concerning the duties carried out by magistrates and professional judges, their work schedules and the constraints to which they are subject and, in general, all relevant circumstances and facts.
