Questions referred
1. | Is it contrary to Article 1(1) of Directive 84/5/EEC for the notion of ‘personal injuries’ to be interpreted as meaning that such injury exists in the case of psychological pain and suffering caused to a child by the death of a parent as a result of a road traffic accident only where that pain and suffering has resulted in pathological damage to the child’s health? |
2. | Does the principle that a national court is to interpret national law in conformity with EU law apply where the national court applies not its own national law but that of another Member State of the European Union? |
