Amendment 22 #
Proposal for a directive
Recital 16 a (new)
(16a) EU law does not limit the power of the Member States to organise their social security schemes. In the absence of harmonisation at EU level, it is for the legislation of each Member State to lay down the conditions under which social security benefits are granted, as well as the amount of such benefits and the period for which they are granted. However, when exercising that power, Member States should comply with EU law. Third-country nationals covered by this Directive should fulfil the conditions laid down by the legislation of the competent Member State with regard to affiliation to a social security scheme or for the entitlement to a benefit.
