43In that regard, it should be recalled that, in view of the discretion enjoyed by Member States as regards the organisation of their own public administrations, those States can, in principle, without acting in a manner contrary to Directive 1999/70 or the Framework Agreement, lay down conditions for becoming career civil servants together with conditions of employment for those civil servants (judgments of 18 October 2012, Valenza and Others, C‑302/11 to C‑305/11, EU:C:2012:646, paragraph 57, and of 20 September 2018, Motter, C‑466/17, EU:C:2018:758, paragraph 43). Member States are thus entitled to lay down conditions of length of service for access to certain posts or to restrict access to internal promotion solely to civil servants, where that flows from the need to take account of objective requirements relating to the post in question and unrelated to the fixed-term of the employment relationship (see, to that effect, judgment of 8 September 2011, Rosado Santana, C‑177/10, EU:C:2011:557, paragraphs 76 and 79).
