Operative part of the judgment
|
1. |
In the case in which a national of a non-member country is lawfully resident in a Member State of the European Union and works in Switzerland, Council Regulation (EC) No 859/2003 of 14 May 2003 extending the provisions of Regulation (EEC) No 1408/71 and Regulation (EEC) No 574/72 to nationals of third countries who are not already covered by those provisions solely on the ground of their nationality does not apply to that person in his Member State of residence, in so far as Regulation No 859/2003 is not among the Community acts mentioned in section A of Annex II to the Agreement between the European Community and its Member States, of the one part, and the Swiss Confederation, of the other, on the free movement of persons, signed at Luxembourg on 21 June 1999, which the parties to that agreement undertake to apply. Consequently, there is no obligation on the Member State of residence to apply Council Regulation (EEC) No 1408/71 of 14 June 1971 on the application of social security schemes to employed persons, to self-employed persons and to members of their families moving within the Community, in the version amended and updated by Council Regulation (EC) No 118/97 of 2 December 1996, as amended by Regulation (EC) No 1992/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 December 2006, and Council Regulation (EEC) No 574/72 of 21 March 1972 fixing the procedure for implementing Regulation (EEC) No 1408/71, in the version amended and updated by Regulation No 118/97, to that employee and his spouse; |
|
2. |
Articles 2, 13 and 76 of Regulation No 1408/71 and Article 10(1)(a) of Regulation No 574/72 are irrelevant in respect of a national of a non-member country in the situation of the claimant in the main proceedings, in so far as her situation is governed by the legislation of the Member State of residence. The fact that that national’s children are citizens of the European Union cannot, by itself, make the refusal to grant child allowance in the Member State of residence unlawful where, as is evident from the referring court’s findings, the statutory conditions which must be satisfied for the purposes of such a grant are not fulfilled. |
