Action brought on 30 December 2022 — TZ v Council
(Case T-803/22)
(2023/C 63/81)
Language of the case: English

Parties


Applicant: TZ (represented by: J. Janssen, lawyer)

Defendant: Council of the European Union

Form of order sought

The applicant claims that the Court should:






—


admit and uphold the pleas for annulment raised in the present application;










—


annul Chapter III of Council Regulation (EU) 2022/1854 of 6 October 2022 on an emergency intervention to address high energy prices (1) (‘contested Regulation’);










—


in the alternative, annul Article 15 of the contested Regulation insofar as it allows the retroactive levy of a solidarity contribution over the year 2022; and










—


order the Council to pay the costs of this procedure.





Pleas in law and main arguments

In support of the action, the applicant relies on two pleas in law.






1.


First plea in law, alleging that the contested Regulation was incorrectly adopted on the basis of article 122(1) TFEU and should have been adopted by the Council, acting unanimously after consulting the European Parliament and in accordance with a special legislative procedure, as the contested Regulation contains fiscal measures.










2.


Second plea in law, alleging that the contested Regulation constitutes a violation of the right to property as enshrined in Article 1 First Protocol to the ECHR and Article 17 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the EU, as well as the EU principles of legality and legal certainty, insofar the contested Regulation allows for retroactive application.

Questions referred







1.


Should the term ‘employment conditions’ used in Clause 4 of the Framework agreement on part-time work annexed to Council Directive 97/81/EC of 15 December 1997 concerning the Framework Agreement on part-time work concluded by UNICE, CEEP and the ETUC (1) be interpreted as including partial retirement benefits from Social Security for which the beneficiaries can only be full-time workers, and not part-time workers?










2.


Should the term ‘part-time workers’ used in Clauses 2 and 3 of [the Framework Agreement annexed to] Directive 97/81/EC be interpreted as including employees under a permanent seasonal contract (contrato fijo-discontinuo)?










3.


Should Clause 4 of the Framework Agreement annexed to Directive 97/81/EC be interpreted as precluding any legislation that prohibits part-time workers from receiving a partial retirement pension with a relief contract [(contrato de relevo; a part-time contract covering hours not worked by employees taking partial retirement)], therefore constituting discrimination not justified on objective grounds in relation to full-time workers?










4.


Should Council Directive 79/7/EEC of 19 December 1978 on the progressive implementation of the principle of equal treatment for men and women in matters of social security (2) be interpreted as precluding regulations, such as the Spanish national regulations, that prevent persons working part-time from being beneficiaries and therefore from receiving a partial retirement pension (with the concurrent conclusion of a relief contract), thereby constituting discrimination on grounds of sex which is not justified on objective grounds?
