The author analyzes the basic lines of decision-making of the Court of Justice on prohibition of age discrimination. After explaining the origins of that prohibition in the Union law the author is aimed at those judgments of the Court of Justice which have been passed on the basis of preliminary ruling questions of the national courts and have clarified those provisions of Directive 2000/78/EC establishing a general framework for equal treatment in employment and occupation which allow to the Member States retaining their specific legal norms of different treatment on grounds of age. The author comes to the conclusion that those notions in Directive 2000/78/EC have no the only possible interpretations and meanings given to them till now by the Court of Justice for the Member States have in their legal orders other provisions on different treatment on grounds of age which have not been properly interpreted by the current case of the Court of Justice yet.

The article deals with the interpretation and application of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union in proceedings on the conformity of legal provisions before the Constitutional court of the Slovak Republic. The authors analyse the only findings of the Constitutional court concerning the Charter. They proceed from the existing theoretical basis of the problem and the case law of the court justice of the EU and some other constitutional courts. The important conclusion of the authors is that the Constitutional court have missed the opportunity to clarify several crucial questions, mainly the scope of application of the Charter in the national legal order and the relations between the Charter and the Constitution of the Slovak Republic and the Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental freedoms. The authors propose some points of departure for the Constitutional court in proceedings on the conformity of legal provisions which might lead to the better understanding of the position and the scope of application of the charter in these proceedings with specific regard of its capacity to be an independent basis of the judicial review.

The article intends to contribute to the theoretical and practical debates concerning the scope of application of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union (hereafter „the Charter“) in relation to the recent judgments of the Court of Justice in the cases Åklagaren Fransson and Melloni. An analysis of these judgments is concentrated on the interpretation of the general provisions of the Charter, namely of Articles 51, 52 and 53. The key element of the application of the Charter within the Member States is a proper interprreation of Article 51 paragraph 1 which uses, regarding to the Member States, the term: only when they are implementing the EU law. The interpretation of that Article in the recent case law goes visibly beyond its mere wording since the Court of Justice wants to connect the application of the Charter with its previous case law on the general principles. The authors deal also with the levels of protection of fundamental rights in interaction between the Charter and national constitutions and the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms. The conclusions of the treatise should open the door for further research of the question of applicability of the Charter within the Member States.
