  1. Citizen's Rights
    1. Rights of entry, exit and residence
      1. Directive 2004/38 Art.6 - all citizens have the right to reside temporarily in host state for up to 3 months
        1. Directive 2004/38 Art.16 - one citizen has been legally residing in host state for continuous period of 5 years they gain the right of permanent residence
          1. Not affected by temporary absences of up to 6 months in any 12 month period, or absences due to 'important reasons' such as pregnancy or illness
          2. Directive 2004/38 Art.4 - nationals must be provided with a passport or identity card to ensure can exit
            1. Directive 2004/38 - a host state can't make it difficult for citizens to enter by demanding entry visas or other such documents
              1. Directive 2004/38 Art.7 - 3 month period extended where citizen is 1) a worker 2) self-employed or 3) has independent means
              2. TFEU Art.21 - "Every citizen on the Union shall have the right to move and reside freely within the territory of the MS, subject to the limitations and conditions laid down by the Treaties and by the measures adopted to give them effect"
                1. Who is a citizen?
                  1. TFEU Art.20 - "Every person holding the nationality of a MS"
                  2. Equal treatment with host state nationals
                    1. TFEU Art.18 - general prohibition on discrimination based on nationality
                      1. More specific... D2004/38 Art.24(1) - citizens and their families who have exercised their right to free movement "shall enjoy equal treatment with nationals" of the host state
                        1. However D2004/38 Art.24(2) - host Member State shall not be obliged to confer entitlement to social assistance during the first three months of residence nor shall it be obliged, prior to acquisition of the right of permanent residence, to grant maintenance aid for studies, including vocational training, consisting in student gran ts or student loans to persons other than workers, self-employed persons, persons who retain such status and members of their families.
                          1. BUT the court has made it clear that Art.24 and Art.18 are to be read in conjunction with one another and has cautioned MS against the application of conditions which are liable to deter citizens from making use of their right to free movement, AND CAN ONLY BE JUSTIFIED if 'based on objective considerations of the public interest independent of the nationality of the persons concerned and if it is proportionate to the legitimate objective pursued by the provisions of national law" - Joined cases C-11/06 Morgan, and C-12/06 Iris Butcher
                      2. Migrant students and availability of grants/similar benefits - may rely on Art.18 but not unreasonable for host state to require a certain level of integration to be demonstrated before support is made available
                        1. C-209/03 Bidar
                          1. C-158/07 Forster
                        2. Citizens rights and family members
                          1. D2004/38 Art.3 - provides citizens with right to be accompanied by family members, irrespective of nationality of family members
                            1. Arts.2&3 - 'family member' includes:
                              1. Spouse (CJEU interprets restrictively to include legally married persons only - Case 59/85 Reed)
                                1. person with whom citizen has registered partnership (provided host state recognises these as equivalent to marriage)
                                  1. Direct descendants under 21, or dependents of the citizen or their spouse/partner
                                    1. Direct ascendants dependent on the citizen or spouse/partner
                                      1. Other dependent family members who, in country from where citizen has migrated, were resident in the household or who have serious health problems requiring personal care
                                        1. A partner with whom citizen has durable relationship (it's for host state to investigate this and justify any denial of entry or residence)
                                      2. Piggy-back rights where family member is an EU citizen
                                        1. TFEU Art.20 and D2004/38 Art.6 - family member has right of free movement for period of up to 3 months, independent of family relationships
                                          1. However, if they are a TCN or want to stay longer and can't satisfy the criteria of either 'sufficient means' or 'economic activity' they will need to rely on the right afforded them as a result of their relationship with the EU citizen
                                    2. Limitations on Citizens' Rights
                                      1. Restrictions on exit, entry and residence on grounds of public policy, public security and public health
                                        1. Public policy and security
                                          1. D2004/38 makes clear MS do not have 'carte blanche' to deny individuals their rights, even on grounds listed
                                            1. For example, in regard to public policy and security, national measures:
                                              1. Must 'not be invoked to serve economic ends': a state shouldn't refuse entry or expel someone due to cost
                                                1. Must 'also comply with the principle of proportionality': a state shouldn't expel for a minor reason of where no equivalent sanction would be placed on a national
                                                  1. Adoui (French Prostitutes) Cases 115&116/81 - French nationals denied entry to Belgium due to their 'moral standards' despite prostitution not even being illegal in Belgium. Held that expulsion of a migrant where similar conduct by a national would not incur a similarly restrictive sanction conflicted with proportionality
                                                  2. Must be 'based exclusively on the personal conduct of the individual': in Van Duyn Case 41/74 CJEU held that participation in activities and/or identification with the aims of a group could constitute 'personal conduct' and that the conduct need not be criminal
                                                    1. Must 'represent a genuine, present and sufficiently serious threat, affecting on of the fundamental interests of society'
                                                      1. Rutili Case 36/75 - trade unionist restricted to living in particular area of France, despite not being shown to be a 'genuine or sufficiently serious threat'
                                                        1. Bouchereau Case 30/77 - migrant convicted of drug offences threatened with deportation, CJEU said that in order to deport an individual must 'show a propensity to act in the same way in the future'
                                                        2. Previous criminal convictions shall not in themselves constitute grounds
                                                          1. Bonsignore Case 67/74 - person accidentally shot brother, convicted on unlawful possession of a firearm but CJEU held couldn't be deported as a general preventative measure
                                                    2. Public health
                                                      1. D2004/38 Art.29 - may refuse entry or expel on health grounds
                                                        1. Generally concerned with 'diseases with epidemic potential'
                                                          1. May require to undergo health check (not charged for) within 3 months of arrival
                                                      2. Free movement of those with 'sufficient resources', job seekers and 'economically active' persons
                                                        1. Where citizen can show they have sufficient resources not to become burden on social assistance system of host state, and comprehensive medical insurance, their right of residence extended beyond 3 months but subject to limitations in Art.27
                                                          1. Job seekers - D2004/38 Arts.6&14 - citizens may reside for up to 3 months without the usual formalities providing the have valid passport or identity card, obviously includes job seekers
                                                            1. CJEU made clear the can't deny usual social assistance (JSA) unless objectively justified for reasons unrelated to nationality - Collins Case C-138/02 and Ioannidis Case C258/04 - as would discourage integration
                                                            2. Economically active (workers, self-employed, service providers) - also able to enjoy extended rights of residence, along with additional rights
