Summary/Abstract: The obligation for consistent interpretation of every legal rule that operates in the legal system of a Member State and falls within the scope of EU law is also known as "indirect effect". Direct effect and indirect effect are alternative methods of ensuring the useful effect (effet utile) of EU law. This obligation applies to anybody who implements law at the moment of implementation and in every situation within the scope of EU law. Naturally, it applies to any economic activity, too. This is therefore the widest-ranging obligation arising from the effect of EU law in a Member State.
