Social security: employed persons, self-employed persons and members of their families moving within the Community

Pending the European Parliament's opinion at first reading, the Council agreed on a general approach on a draft Regulation amending Regulation (EEC) No 1408/71 on the application of the national social security schemes to persons moving within the Community.

The draft Regulation aims to update and amend the references in certain Annexes to Regulation (EEC) No 1408/71, to take account of recent changes in national legislation. Similar exercises have been undertaken at more or less annual intervals. This update is intended to be the last one for Regulation (EEC) No 1408/71.
