New national side of euro coins intended for circulation
2013/C 165/08




National side of the new commemorative 2-euro coin intended for circulation and issued by France

Euro coins intended for circulation have legal tender status throughout the euro area. For the purpose of informing the public and all parties who handle the coins, the Commission publishes a description of the designs of all new coins (1). In accordance with the Council conclusions of 10 February 2009 (2), euro-area Member States and countries that have concluded a monetary agreement with the Community providing for the issuing of euro coins are allowed to issue commemorative euro coins intended for circulation, provided that certain conditions are met, particularly that only the 2-euro denomination is used. These coins have the same technical characteristics as other 2-euro coins, but their national face features a commemorative design that is highly symbolic in national or European terms.
Issuing country: France
Subject of commemoration: the 150th anniversary of the birth of Pierre de Coubertin, initiator of the revival of the Olympic Games, founder and first president of the International Olympic Committee.
Description of the design: The inner part of the coin depicts the face of Pierre de Coubertin still young. Stylised Olympic rings form the background. They provide the framework for silhouettes symbolising the Olympic sports. At the left, the indication of the issuing country ‘RF’ and the year ‘2013’. At the top, the inscription ‘PIERRE DE COUBERTIN’ in semi-circle.
The coin’s outer ring depicts the 12 stars of the European flag.
Number of coins to be issued: 1 million
Date of issue: June 2013

Questions referred







1.


Is Article 4(1) of Directive 79/7/EEC (1) (Directive on the progressive implementation of the principle of equal treatment of men and women in matters of social security) to be interpreted in such a way that it precludes national legislation on the basis of which the different life expectancies of men and women are used as an actuarial calculation criterion for a statutory social benefit payable due to an accident, when, by using this criterion, the lump sum benefit paid to a man is smaller than that paid to a woman of the same age and in a similar situation in other respects?










2.


If the answer to the first question is affirmative, does the case involve a sufficiently serious breach of EU law, this being a condition for Member State liability, particularly when account is taken of the following:






—


in its case-law, the CJEU has not taken a specific position on the question of whether sex-based actuarial factors may be taken into account in the determination of statutory social security benefits falling within the scope of application of Directive 79/7/EEC;










—


in its judgment issued in case C-236/09 Test-Achats the CJEU has stated that Article 5(2) of Directive 2004/113/EC (2) (Directive implementing the principle of equal treatment between men and women in the access to and supply of goods and services), which allows such factors to be taken into consideration, is invalid but has stipulated a transitional period prior to the provision becoming invalid; and










—


in Directives 2004/113/EC and 2006/54/EC (3) (Directive on the implementation of the principle of equal opportunity and equal treatment of men and women in matters of employment and occupation) the EU’s legislature has allowed, on certain conditions, sex-based actuarial factors to be taken into account in the calculation of benefits referred to in these Directives, and on the basis of this the national legislature has assumed that these factors can also be considered in the area of statutory social security referred to in this case?

Questions referred

Is Article 4(a) of Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) No 1062/2010 (1) of 28 September 2010 supplementing Directive 2010/30/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council with regard to energy labelling of televisions to be interpreted as meaning that dealers are subject to an obligation to label televisions (from 30 November 2011) only if those televisions were supplied by the supplier together with the relevant label (from 30 November 2011) in accordance with Article 3(1)(a) of that regulation, or does the labelling obligation also apply to dealers (from 30 November 2011) in respect of televisions supplied by suppliers before 30 November 2011 without the relevant labels, so that dealers are obliged to request suppliers (in good time, subsequently) to provide labels for those televisions?
