COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 2595/77 of 21 November 1977 amending Regulations (EEC) No 1408/71 and (EEC) No 574/72 on the application of social security schemes to employed persons and their families moving within the Community
THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES,
Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Economic Community, and in particular Articles 2, 7 and 51 thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 1408/71 of 14 June 1971 on the application of social security schemes to employed persons and their families moving within the Community (1), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1209/76 (2), and in particular Articles 95 and 97 thereof,
Having regard to Council Regulation (EEC) No 574/72 of 21 March 1972 fixing the procedure for implementing Regulation (EEC) No 1408/71 on the application of social security schemes to employed persons and their families moving within the Community (3), as last amended by Regulation (EEC) No 1209/76, and in particular Article 121 thereof,

Whereas it is necessary to regulate the award of invalidity benefits in cases where a worker previously subject to legislation based on the materialization of the risk is subject to legislation based on the length of insurance, under which he becomes disabled, and where under the former legislation the award of invalidity benefits is subject to the condition that for a specified period the worker has previously received cash sickness benefits or has previously been incapable of work;
Whereas the Law on general insurance against incapacity for work entered into force in the Netherlands on 1 October 1976 ; whereas, since it is legislation based on the materialization of the risk, this Law should be...
