JUDGMENT OF THE COURT

(Second Chamber)

of 11 November 2004

3. Article 14 of Decision No 1/80 precludes national courts, when
reviewing the lawfulness of the expulsion of a Turkish national,
from not taking into consideration factual matters which occurred
after the final decision of the competent authorities and which no
longer justify a limitation of the rights of the person concerned
within the meaning of that provision.

1. The first paragraph of Article 7 of Decision No 1/80 of 19
September 1980 on the development of the Association adopted
by the Association Council set up by the Agreement establishing
an Association between the European Economic Community and
Turkey must be interpreted as applying to a person who has

registered as belonging to the labour force of the host Member
State, even though that person was born in and has always resided
in the host State.

the rights conferred by that provision on a Turkish national in Mr
Cetinkaya's situation from being limited, after the imposition of a
custodial sentence followed by a course of detoxication, on the
ground of prolonged absence from the labour force.
