1.Article 135(1)(a) of Council Directive 2006/112/EC of 28 November 2006 on the common system of value added tax must be interpreted as meaning that transactions consisting of the sale by an insurance undertaking to third parties of parts from written-off motor vehicles that have been involved in accidents covered by that undertaking, which it has purchased from the persons whom it insures, do not fall within the scope of that provision.
2.Article 136(a) of Directive 2006/112 must be interpreted as meaning that transactions consisting of the sale by an insurance undertaking to third parties of parts from written-off motor vehicles that have been involved in accidents covered by that undertaking, which it has purchased from the persons whom it insures, do not fall within the scope of that provision.
3.The principle of fiscal neutrality inherent in the common system of value added tax must be interpreted as not precluding the refusal to exempt transactions consisting of the sale by an insurance undertaking to third parties of parts from written-off motor vehicles that have been involved in accidents covered by that undertaking, which it has purchased from the persons whom it insures, where those purchases did not give rise to deductibility.
