31According to the Court’s case-law, the Member States must exercise the discretion that they have under those articles in compliance with EU law and its general principles and, in particular, in compliance with the principle of equal treatment (see, to that effect, judgment of 30 January 2020, Autoservizi Giordano, C‑513/18, EU:C:2020:59, paragraph 35 and the case-law cited). Moreover, that requirement applies both to the measures by which that discretion is exercised and to the application of those measures.
