Parties to the main proceedings


Appellant: José Luis Cabana Carballo

Respondents: Instituto Nacional de la Seguridad Social (INSS), Tesorería General de la Seguridad Social (TGSS)

Questions referred







1.


Must Article 53(3)(a) and (d) of Regulation (EC) No 883/2004 (1) be regarded as one of the contrary provisions referred to by Article 5 thereof and therefore as applicable instead of the provisions of Article 5(b)?










2.


For the purposes of Article 53(3)(a) of that regulation, is the Spanish legislation concerning the 20 % supplement to the pension for total permanent incapacity to perform the normal occupation to be regarded as establishing that allowances and income acquired abroad are to be taken into account?










3.


If the reply to the previous question is in the negative, is the Spanish administrative and judicial practice of suspending the 20 % supplement to the pension for total permanent capacity to perform the normal occupation when the beneficiary receives a retirement pension from another Member State contrary to that Community provision?










4.


If the reply to question 2 is in the affirmative, is it to be regarded as incompatible with Article 53(3)(d) of the Regulation for the 20 % supplement to the pension for total permanent incapacity to perform the normal occupation also to be suspended in respect of that part which exceeds the amount of the pension from the other Member State?

(Case M.8412 — ENGIE Services Holding UK/Keepmoat Regeneration Holdings)
Candidate case for simplified procedure
(Text with EEA relevance)
(2017/C 87/12)






1.


On 14 March 2017, the Commission received notification of a proposed concentration pursuant to Article 4 of Council Regulation (EC) No 139/2004 (1) by which the undertaking ENGIE Services Holding UK Limited (‘ESHUL’, United Kingdom), controlled by ENGIE S.A. (France), acquires within the meaning of Article 3(1)(b) of the Merger Regulation control of the whole of Keepmoat Regeneration Holdings Limited (‘KRHL’, United Kingdom), by way of purchase of shares.










2.


The business activities of the undertakings concerned are:






—


ESHUL is one of the business divisions of ENGIE group which offers a combination of service expertise, in particular, in the provision of facilities management including energy services, designing and implementing solutions which offers businesses, public authorities and communities the means to achieve cost savings, through efficient management of buildings and installations;










—


KRHL is a provider of integrated affordable housing development and community regeneration services in the United Kingdom.
