( EEC TREATY, ARTICLES 48 TO 51 )

Summary

IT IS INCOMPATIBLE WITH THE OBJECTIVES OF ARTICLES 48 TO 51 OF THE EEC TREATY WHICH CONSTITUTE THE BASIS, THE FRAMEWORK AND THE BOUNDS OF THE SOCIAL SECURITY REGULATIONS TO REDUCE THE RIGHTS OF WORKERS WITHOUT CONFERRING UPON THEM THE COMPENSATING BENEFITS PRESCRIBED IN THOSE REGULATIONS .

LIMITATIONS MAY THEREFORE BE IMPOSED ON WORKERS ONLY IN CASES IN WHICH COMMUNITY REGULATIONS CONFER UPON THEM BENEFITS WHICH THEY WOULD OTHERWISE BE UNABLE TO OBTAIN .
