Questions referred

1.

Is a national provision which treats taxable persons differently in respect of the tax exemption provided for under Title XII, Chapter 1, of Council Directive 2006/112 (1) on the common system of value added tax depending on the rapidity with which they reach the turnover threshold for compulsory VAT registration in breach of the principles of the common system of value added tax in the European Union?
