Questions referred

1.Should the provisions of Directive 2008/48/EC of 23 April 2008 on credit agreements for consumers and repealing Council Directive 87/102/EEC, as amended, in particular Articles 3(g), 10(1) and 22(1) thereof, be interpreted as precluding ‘non-interest credit costs’, determined as a lump sum in accordance with the statutory calculation formula set out in Article 36a of the ustawa z dnia 12 maja 2011 r. o kredycie konsumenckim (Dziennik Ustaw z 2018 r., poz. 993, tekst jednolity) (Law of 12 May 2011 on Consumer Credit) (Journal of Laws of 2018, item 993, consolidated text) (the Law on Consumer Credit), from being distinguished from the ‘total cost of the credit to the consumer’, as defined in that directive, in a manner that enables the actual non-interest credit costs borne by the loan provider to be concealed from the consumer?
