Language of the case: Spanish

1.The principle that national law must be interpreted in conformity with an EU directive is not applicable to a situation in which the facts occurred after the date of entry into force of Directive (EU) 2019/1023 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 June 2019 on preventive restructuring frameworks, on discharge of debt and disqualifications, and on measures to increase the efficiency of procedures concerning restructuring, insolvency and discharge of debt, and amending Directive (EU) 2017/1132 (Directive on restructuring and insolvency), but before the expiry of the deadline for transposition of that directive and its transposition into national law.
2.Article 23(4) of Directive 2019/1023 must be interpreted as meaning that the list of specific categories of debt set out therein is not exhaustive and that the Member States have the power to exclude specific categories of debt other than those listed in that provision from discharge of debt, provided that such an exclusion is duly justified under national law.
3.An interpretation by the national courts of national legislation applicable to facts which occurred after the date of entry into force of Directive 2019/1023, but before the expiry of the deadline for its transposition, in accordance with which interpretation the exclusion of claims governed by public law from discharge of debt is not duly justified in that legislation, is not liable seriously to compromise, after the expiry of that deadline, the attainment of the objective pursued by that directive.
