62As the Advocate General pointed out, in essence, in points 51 to 55 of his Opinion, first, the requirement of a specific licence to provide PHV services in the Barcelona conurbation, in addition to the national licence required for the provision of urban and interurban PHV services, constitutes in itself a restriction on the exercise of the freedom guaranteed by Article 49 TFEU, since such a requirement effectively limits access to the market for any newcomer (see, to that effect, judgment of 10 March 2009, Hartlauer, C‑169/07, EU:C:2009:141, paragraph 34; see also, by analogy, judgment of 22 January 2002, Canal Satélite Digital, C‑390/99, EU:C:2002:34, paragraph 29).
