    Questions referred

    1.

    Is Article 77(2)(b)(i) of Regulation (EEC) No 1408/71 (1) to be interpreted as meaning that family allowances need not be granted by the former State of employment to persons who receive pensions for old age, invalidity or an accident at work or occupational disease under the legislation of more than one Member State and whose pension entitlement is based on the legislation of the former State of employment (national pension entitlement) if provision is made in the State of residence for a comparable, higher benefit, which is, however, incompatible with another benefit for which the person concerned, having been given the choice, has opted?

    2.

    3.

    Does the same apply to a benefit under Article 77 or Article 78 of Regulation (EEC) No 1408/71 for which provision is generally made in the children’s State of residence, but for which the person concerned, as someone who is not being given a choice, cannot opt?
