Marks and Spencer Plc v Commissioners of Customs and Excise: CA 19 Jan 2000

The doctrine of direct effect which gave rise for a private individual against a member state could only operate where the member failed to comply with the requirements of European Law to give effect to such law, and the requirement to put such rules into effect had to be unconditional and precise. A party could not use the doctrine to claim against a member state under European Law in general.
