Questions referred
1. |
In cases in which a national of a non-member country is lawfully resident in a Member State of the European Union and works in the Swiss Confederation, does Regulation (EC) No 859/2003 (1) apply to him and his spouse, who is also a national of a non-member country, in their Member State of residence, with the result that the Member State of residence is obliged to apply Regulations (EEC) No 1408/71 (2) and (EEC) No 574/72 (3) to that employed person and his spouse? |
2. |
If the answer to the first question is in the negative: in the circumstances set out in the first question, are Articles 2, 13 and 76 of Regulation (EEC) No 1408/71 and Article 10(1)(a) of Regulation (EEC) No 574/72 to be interpreted as meaning that a mother who is a national of a non-member country may be refused family benefits in her Member State of residence on the basis of the fact that she is a national of a non-member country, even though the child concerned is a Union citizen? |
