Carmen Media Group Ltd v Land Schleswig-Holstein and another C-46/08, [2010] All ER (D) 44 (Sep)

The Grand Chamber of the European Court of Justice held, inter alia, that on the proper interpretation of Art 49 EC, an operator wishing to offer via the internet bets on sporting competitions in a member state other than the one in which it was established did not cease to fall within the scope of the said provision solely because that operator did not have an authorisation permitting it to offer such bets to persons within the territory of the member state in which it was established, but held only an authorisation to offer those services to persons located outside that territory.
