There have been attempts to takeover the company, which have not been successful because the VW-Gesetz includes several provisions, which make

It was not until the 1970's, when the claims that lawyers profession fell within the exception of official authority (Article 45 EC) were defeated in the Reyners judgement and the lawyer's profession was held to be within the scope of freedom of establishment.
