Judgment of the Court (Seventh Chamber) of 5 October 2023 (request for a preliminary ruling from the Curtea de Apel Bucureşti — Romania) — EI v SC Brink’s Cash Solutions SRL
(Case C-496/22, (1) Brink’s Cash Solutions)
(Reference for a preliminary ruling - Social policy - Approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to collective redundancies - Directive 98/59/EC - The first subparagraph of Article 1(1)(b) and Article 6 - Procedure for informing and consulting workers in the event of projected collective redundancies - No workers’ representatives appointed - National legislation allowing an employer not to inform and consult the workers concerned individually)
(C/2023/732)
Language of the case: Romanian

Referring court

Curtea de Apel Bucureşti

Parties to the main proceedings


Appellant: EI

Respondent: SC Brink’s Cash Solutions SRL

Operative part of the judgment

The first subparagraph of Article 1(1)(b), Article 2(3) and Article 6 of Council Directive 98/59/EC of 20 July 1998 on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to collective redundancies, as amended by Directive (EU) 2015/1794 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 6 October 2015,
must be interpreted as not precluding national legislation which does not require an employer to consult individually the workers affected by projected collective redundancies, where those workers have not appointed workers’ representatives, and which does not require those workers to appoint such representatives, provided that that legislation makes it possible, in circumstances beyond the control of those workers, to guarantee the full effect of those provisions of Directive 98/59, as amended.

Action brought on 5 October 2023 — European Commission v Republic of Cyprus
(Case C-617/23)
(C/2023/966)
Language of the case: Greek

Parties


Applicant: European Commission (represented by: D. Triantafyllou and L. Armati)

Defendant: Republic of Cyprus

Form of order sought

The applicant claims that the Court should:






—


declare that the Republic of Cyprus has failed to fulfil its obligations under Directive 2005/36/EC (1) and Article 49 TFEU by adopting national legislation incompatible with;






—


Article 1, Article 2(1), Article 4(1) and Article 50(1) of Directive 2005/36/EC, as well as Article 49 TFEU, in so far as Article 7(2), (4), (5) and (7), Article 7A(5), (6), (7) and (9) and Article 25(1D) of the ETEK (Technical and Scientific Chamber of Cyprus) Act, as revised, exclude from their scope of application professionals who hold full professional qualifications (but who are not legally established at the time of application), imposing the requirement of active practice of the profession and legal establishment in the Member State of origin as a condition for access to and practice of professions in the field of engineering sciences in Cyprus,










—


Article 21 and Article 46(1) and (4) of Directive 2005/36/EC, in so far as Article 7(4) of the ETEK Act, as revised, imposes additional requirements of professional practice or professional experience in cases falling under the automatic recognition of professional qualifications;










—


Chapter I of Title III of Directive 2005/36/EC by failing to ensure the application of the general system for the recognition of the profession of architect in Article 7 of the ETEK Act, as revised;














—


order the Republic of Cyprus to pay the costs.





Pleas in law and main arguments

The European Commission considers that the Cypriot legislation:






—


excludes the recognition of professional qualifications of architects and civil engineers who do not already practise the profession in another Member State where they are already established,










—


imposes additional requirements for access to the profession of architect, over and above those laid down by the Directive,










—


does not ensure the automatic application of the general system of recognition, which falls within the sole discretion of the competent authority.

Operative part of the order

The first paragraph of Article 183 of Council Directive 2006/112/EC of 28 November 2006 on the common system of value added tax
must be interpreted as meaning that a taxable person is entitled to be paid interest for late payment on excess value added tax by the national tax administration where the latter has not refunded that excess within a reasonable period. The methods for applying that interest fall within the procedural autonomy of the Member States, circumscribed by the principles of equivalence and effectiveness, it being understood that the national rules relating in particular to the starting point for the calculation of any interest due must not amount to depriving the taxable person of adequate compensation for the loss caused by the late refund of that excess.
