QUESTIONS TO THE PARTIES 1.   Was Article   6 §   1 of the Convention applicable to the proceedings in the present case (see Nedyalkov and Others v. Bulgaria (dec.), no. 663/11, § 109, 10 September 2013; Maniscalco v. Italy (dec.), no. 19440/10, § 28-32, 2   December 2014; and Shorazova v. Malta , no. 51853/19, §§ 49-50 and   126-   27, 3 March 2022)?   2. Did the applicant have a fair hearing in the determination of his civil rights and obligations, in accordance with Article   6 §   1 of the Convention? In particular, was the decision of the High Court sufficiently reasoned, as required by the Constitutional Court (see De Moor v. Belgium , 23 June 1994, § 55 in fine , Series A no. 292 ‑ A; see, also, Micallef v. Malta [GC], no.   17056/06, § 86, ECHR 2009)?
