71In the present case, it is for the referring court, in the light of the precise evidence before it, to determine whether the national legislation satisfies that condition. In that context, it is for the referring court to ascertain whether, and to what extent, the administration is bound, under the applicable national law, to conduct a periodic review, at regular and sufficiently close intervals, of the necessity and means of its intervention in the light of developments in the gas sector, it being specifically for that court, in the course of that assessment, to take into account the provisions of Regulation No 994/2010, applicable at the time of the facts in the main proceedings, now replaced by Regulation 2017/1938, which governs, inter alia, the establishment, by each Member State, of a preventive action plan and an emergency plan in order to ensure the security and regularity of the supply of gas at national level.
