COUNCIL REGULATION (EEC) No 1517/79 of 16 July 1979 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 2595/77 (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 2595/77, and in particular Article 121 thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission (4) drawn up after consultation with the Administrative Commission on Social Security for Migrant Workers,

Having regard to the opinion of the European Parliament (5),

Having regard to the opinion of the Economic and Social Committee (6),

Whereas the experience gained while implementing Regulations (EEC) No 1408/71 and (EEC) No 574/72 has revealed the need to make some improvements to the rights of migrant workers ; whereas, consequently, persons who are called up or recalled for civilian service and who are, for certain benefits, treated as persons performing military service, should benefit under Regulation (EEC) No 1408/71;

Whereas the possibility provided for in Article 17 of Regulation (EEC) No 1408/71 should be extended to the bodies designated by the competent authorities of the Member States;

Whereas the changes made in United Kingdom legislation make it necessary to amend Annexes III and V to Regulation (EEC) No 1408/71 so as, on the one hand, to allow periods completed under the legislation of other Member States to be taken into account for the purpose of satisfying presence conditions laid down for the award of family allowances in the United Kingdom and, on the other hand, to introduce special provisions for calculating the amount of the additional component of pensions in the United Kingdom;

Whereas the lump-sum payment for following a course of medical treatment, on the occasion of confinement granted under German legislation, should be considered as a benefit in kind ; whereas certain changes in German legislation as regards the national financial administration also make it necessary to amend Annex V to Regulation (EEC) No 1408/71;

Whereas it is necessary for persons covered by Agreements concluded under Article 17 of Regulation (EEC) No 1408/71 to be provided with documentary evidence indicating which Member State's legislation they are subject to;

Whereas it is necessary to solve the practical difficulties which may arise for a worker, other than an international transport worker, who normally pursues his activity in the territory of two or more Member States; (1)OJ No L 149, 5.7.1971, p. 2.

(6)Opinion delivered on 27 June 1979 (not yet published in the Official Journal).
