Abstract

The purpose of the present article is to introduce the Holship judgement, and attempt to describe the consequences of EU’s accession to the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms. In such a case, the European Court of Human Rights and the Court of Justice of the European Union would have to deal, one the hand, with the issue of treaty freedoms (including freedom to conduct a business), and on the other hand, with respecting guarantees included in the Article 11 of the Convention.
