Abstract

In the reporting period July-September 2019, the Court of Justice of the European Union delivered various rulings that are significant for social security. The ruling that stands out is the one in Van den Berg and others, which concerned the power of a non-competent Member State to grant residents benefits where they lack insurance cover in the competent State. The other cases included in this overview concern the application of the right to equal treatment to social security conventions concluded between a Member State and a third country (EU), the retention of the status of self-employed person by women who cease to be active due to pregnancy (Dakneviciute) and the right to export student financial aid (Aubriet)
