Levin

A

Lawrie-Blum

A

3 part definition of what a worker is:

  1. provides services under direction
  2. for certain periods of time
  3. for renumeration

Objective test to be determined by NC, fact that worker resides in one and is employed in another MS is irrelevant

Here, the fact that as a trainee she was paid less than a full teacher’s salary was immaterial for the same reason given in LEVIN and KEMPF: genuine economic nature of work + renumeration

Lisbon Treaty - citizen rights

A

Linked citizenship more closely to prohibition of discrimination

86
Q

NOTE CRD!

A

Didn’t eliminate the distinction economically active vs. economically non-active

87
Q

Grzelczyk - citizenship

A

“Union states is destined to be fundamental status of nationals of the member states”

88
Q

Central issue arising from the notion of “citizenship”

A

Is citizenship now the primary legal status under EU law and replacing economic distinctions OR is citizenship merely a residential framework to the economic distinctions?

89
Q

2004/38, Art 24

A

Union citizens and family members enjoy equal treatment with nationals within scope of treaties - incorporated CJEU case law on equal treatment with NO entitlement to financial assistance during first 3 MONTHS

90
Q

Dano v Jobseeker Leipzig (social assistance)

A

Additional right to derogate (apart from 24): when applicant for social assistance is economically inactive, with no intention to work and does not comply with the conditions to reside and exercise of free movement set out in 2004/38 (sufficient resources not to become a burden, comprehensive medical cover)

91
Q

Art 20 and 21 TFEU

A

Increased extend to which individuals can challenge restrictions on the rights they enjoy within their own MS, NOT having exercised their free movement right (“wholly internal situations”)
–> the neither economically active nor self-sufficient (not covered by previous EU status categories) CAN NOW invoke Art 18, 20 and 21 for equality treatment when it comes to benefits

92
Q

Art 21 TFEU

A

Autonomous and directly effective right of movement and residence

CONDITIONS:

(i) public policy, security and health restrictions (27-33 of 2004/38)
(ii) finance and health insurance conditions (7(1) 2004/38) on non- economically active following 3 months period of Art 6 2004/38

93
Q

Baumbast

A

Did he have an INDEPENDENT right of residence as EU citizen even though he was no longer a worker and did not fit into any economic categories (worked in Asia)?

Yes. Art. 20(1) confers a directly effective right of residence regardless of economic status, limitations and conditions were secondary to this directly effective right

94
Q

Chen

A

Confirmed that Art 20(1) TFEU confers a directly effective right of residence for EU citizens who don’t fall within any of the economic status categories

HERE: Baby, born to Chinese mother in Northern Ireland, had a right of residence even though she had never exercised it as an economically active person

Conditions/limitation must be applied proportionately! Baby did not have resources or health care but her mother did

95
Q

The “wholly internal” situations (of Saunders and Morson) after the idea of EU citizenship

A

Rejected in Kramzov and Uecker

BUT, the CJEU has been willing to give law on citizenship effect in wholly internal situations (claims being made by nationals against their state)

1) Cases involving dual nationality
2) Family reunification claims

96
Q

DUAL NATIONALITY cases

A

Garcia Avello

Chen

97
Q

FAMILY REUNIFICATION cases

A

Zambrano
McCarthy
Dereci

98
Q

Garcia Avello || Chen

A

Cross-border element despite never having exercised free movement right

Garcia Avello: Belgian rule prohibiting any change in a registered surname = discrimination under Art 18 and 20 TFEU because her was discriminated against by comparison to other Belgian nationals. He had never exercised his free movement right BUT this was not a wholly internal situation because of his dual nationality

99
Q

Zambrano

A

Family reunification claims: non-EU parents with 2 EU kids who had never left Belgium

8 MS argued wholly internal situation but Sharpston AG AND CJEU said right of residence and right of movement are INDEPENDENT not combined, you can have citizenship without movement

NOTE CJEU’s brief and reasoned judgement: refusal of residence and work permit to parents would obstruct enjoyment of children’s citizenship rights!

100
Q

McCarthy

A

CJEU went back on Zambrano: right of residence only when exercised right of free movement

DISTINGUISHABLE from Zambrano though in terms of dependence/vulnerability - Jamaican husband not children

101
Q

Dereci

A

Even harsher row back on Zambrano than McCarthy: a denial of citizen rights only occurs when they had to leave the EU as a whole

102
Q

2 conditions imposed by 2004/38 on non-workers

A

Art 24(2) 2004/38:

(i) sufficient resources not to become a burden
(ii) comprehensive medical insurance

103
Q

Citizenship law’s effect on

(i) non-economically active
(ii) students
(iii) jobseekers

A

They all saw extensions to the circumstances under which they might enjoy social benefits in HS

104
Q

Martinez Sala

A

Extended definition of “worker” to those seeking work - 3 months to seek

BEFORE 2004/38: most liberal approach to social benefits –> economically non-active

Simply because EU citizenship and residence, economic activity irrelevant!

NOTE here, there was an alternative legal basis for residence provided by German law

105
Q

Trojani

A

AFTER 2004/38: he lacked sufficient resources to qualify for lawful residence

NOTE here, he qualified for lawful residence under less onerous Belgian law

106
Q

Trojani: sufficient resources test

A

MS are NOT ENTITLED to equate recourse to social assistance to lack of sufficient resources

SUPPORTED in Bey and upheld in Dano (despite assertion of Art 24(2))

107
Q

Dano v Jobseeker Lepzig

A

No longer enough to show lawful resident under national law (Trojani, Martinez) - must show lawful resident under EU law and satisfy Art 24(2) 2004/38 conditions proportionally to exercise Art 18 non-discrimination right

108
Q

Pre-citizenship law for students

A

Gravier: enrolment fee for non-Belgium was contrary to Art 18

Liar || Brown: CJEU limited scope of potential liability of MS following Gravier - more substantive liabilities such as maintenance (not relating to ACCESS), were exempted from Art 18 claims

1990 Student Residence Directive: right of residence that MS could subject to condition of sufficient resources

109
Q

Grzelczyk: the turning point for Students –> social benefits

A

Based on 1990 Student Residence Directive, claim for social assistance seem unlikely to be successful

However

Neither 1990 Student Directive nor 2004/38 directive specified a ballpark figures to what “sufficient resources” mean

Applying unreasonable burden test, there must be something like a reasonable burden and Grzelczyk highlighted there was a public duty on MS to show some care to other MS nationals –> presuming a certain degree of solidarity between nationals

ESPECIALLY when difficulties are temporary, like that of a student

Q

Bidar

A

Liar || Brown had said that maintenance grants were exempted from Art 18 claims

BUT Bidar…

Art 24 2004/38 brought student maintenance within the scope of the Treaty –> now a social benefit subject to Art 18 and 45 discrimination claims

24(2) DEROGATION EXCESSIVELY RESTRICTIVE - alternative test:

Collins link with host state, NOT an economic one, cultural/social interaction could be enough

(UK: maintenance grant if lived inYK for 3 years)

111
Q

Foerster

A

Condition of 5 years prior residence in MS = proportionate + acceptable to establish Collins link for maintenance grant to non-HS students

112
Q

Prinz and Seenerger

A

Requirement having obtained permanent residence by having spent 3 years in awarding MS prior to assumption of studies was disproportionate –> not retroactively applicable like in Foerster (if you didn’t know and didn’t apply for residence vs. just prove afterwards the 5 years)

113
Q

Bressol

A

Belgium argued it needed quota system on acceptance to study medicine for public heal exemption (needed to ensure certain number of Belgians trained as doctors to protect domestic medical system)

CJEU: soft stance - contravenes Art 20 + 21 but justified on public health grounds - empirical evidence needed though
==> CJEU responsive to adverse reactions of MS (see also Commission v Austria)

114
Q

Jobseeker –> benefits cases

A

D’Hoop
Collins
Vatsouras

115
Q

Student –> benefits cases

A 
Gravier
Liar || Brown
Grzelczyk
Bidar 
Foerster
Commission v Austria || Bressol (CJEU more responsive to adverse reactions of MS
116
Q

D’Hoop

A

Belgian national was refused tide over allowance because she had completed her secondary education in France –> Art 18 discrimination, requirement disproportionate because liable to frustrate enjoyment of free movement

Particularly unacceptable that she had been discriminated against consequent to her exercise of her free movement right
ALSO: real link of Belgian national with Belgium?

117
Q

Collins

A

Introduction of citizenship law merited a reversal of its previous position in Lebon, were EU nationals were only entitle to equal access to employment NOT social and tax benefits enjoyed by workers under Art. 7 492/2011

–> JOBSEEKERS WOULD HENCEFORTH BE ENTITLED TO BENEFITS DESIGNED TO FACILITATE ACCESS TO EMPLOYMENT MARKET (Collins real link was allowed, but must be assessed in proportionate and non-discriminatory way - this would later change with Vatsouras)

118
Q

Vatsouras

A

Would Collins survive Art. 24(2) of 2004/38 which allows States to derogate from equal treatment principle to limit entitlement to social assistance for migrants during the initial first 3 months?

Greek nationals, whose economic status under German law was unclear had applied for jobseekers allowance - was the Art 24(2) derogation was comparable with EU citizenship rights under Art 18 and 21

Confirming Collins: introduction of EU citizenship overruled earlier caselaw (Lebon) –> Art 45(2) included social benefits (to facilitate access to employment market) for jobseekers

JOBSEEKERS BENEFITS ARE NOT TO BE CONSIDERED SOCIAL BENEFITS UNDER 24(2)

119
Q

Art 16, 2004/38 Directive

Q

Art. 27, Directive 2004/38

A

Provisions governing the measures which MS can take against EU citizens and their families on grounds of PUBLIC POLICY, SECURITY AND HEALTH

122
Q

Byankov (refusal to permit exit)

A

Art 27 CRD can not be invoked to pursue economic ends –> how would the risk to a few creditors here constitute an overall threat to PUBLIC threat/security?

123
Q

Aladzhov (refusaal to permit exit)

A

In certain circumstances, non-payment of tax liability can amount to public security risk (proportionality and necessity test)

124
Q

Art 27-33 CRD public security restrictions - ultra enhanced protection (10 years residence)

A

MG: 10 years must in principle be continuous and calculated backwards from date of the order for expulsion

PI: sexual offences amount to imperative requirements of public policy justifying exclusion

125
Q

Art 49 TFEU

A

Extends Art 45 to the self-employed

126
Q

Art 56 TFEU

A

Freedom of establishment: prohibits MS from adopting measures restrictive of an individuals ability to provide services

127
Q

56 vs. 45 and 49

A

56 concerns those who are temporarily moving for work - to provide services - and then leave

128
Q

Arts 45, 49 and 56

A

National criteria: applicant must be national of MS

Economic link: applicant is in some form of remunerated employment i.e. doesn’t work for nothing

129
Q

negative interventions –> positive interventions

A

negative goal of non-discrimination –> securing of right to market access and enjoyment of movement right

130
