(27) Articles 52, 62 and 65 TFEU and relevant case law also apply to ECBAs. These TFEU Articles provide for the justification of measures restricting the freedom of establishment, freedom to provide services and free movement of capital on grounds including public policy, public security and public health. Furthermore, the concept of ‘overriding reasons in the public interest’ to which reference is made in certain provisions of this Directive has been developed by the Court of Justice in its case law. Measures by Member States that are liable to hinder or make less attractive the exercise of those Treaty freedoms should be permitted only where they can be justified by objectives listed in the Treaty or by overriding reasons in the public interest recognised by Union law. While no exhaustive definition exists, the Court of Justice has recognised that justifications are possible on various grounds such as public policy, public security and public health, the maintenance of order in society, social policy objectives, the protection of the recipients of services, consumer protection, the protection of creditors, the protection of workers, provided that the other conditions are met. Such measures need, in any event, to be approprinecessary and proportionate for ensuring the attainment of the objective in question and not go beyond what is necessary to attain that objective.

(39) To prevent fraud, it is important that Member States verify the identity of the founding members and the legal representatives of the ECBA. The verification of identity is particularly important if the application for registration is conducted electronically. Due to the variety of different practices in Member States, the specific methods of verifying identity should remain in the prerogative of the Member State concerned.

(45) In compliance with the freedom of assembly and of association, an ECBA should be dissolved only by decision of its members or by a decision of the competent authority of the home Member State. Where the dissolution of an ECBA is the result of a decision of its members, it should be taken by two-thirds of the votes representing at least half of the total of the members during an extraordinary meeting. The dissolution of an ECBA may be involuntary by decision of the competent authority of the home Member State of the ECBA, as a last resort, only where an ECBA does not respect its non- profit purpose, where its activities constitute a threat to public order, or where the members of the executive body of an ECBA have been convicted of a particularly serious criminal offence or the ECBA itself has been convicted of a criminal offence, if national law allows for this possibility. Such a decision should be preceded by a risk assessment in line with standards of necessity and proportionality. In this case, the competent authority should communicate to the ECBA a formal notice of its concerns and hear the ECBA in order to give the ECBA the opportunity to reply. The decision should be subject to an independent judicial review pending finalisation.

Member States shall ensure that the safeguards are conditional upon the relocation taking effect. 2.
