      Request for an Advisory Opinion from the EFTA Court by Héraðsdómur Reykjavíkur dated 8 December 2021 in the case of Anna Bryndís Einarsdóttir v the Icelandic Treasury
      (Case E-5/21)
      (2022/C 153/07)
      A request has been made to the EFTA Court dated 8 December 2021 from Héraðsdómur Reykjavíkur (Reykjavik District Court), which was received at the Court Registry on 13 December 2021, for an Advisory Opinion in the case of Anna Bryndís Einarsdóttir v the Icelandic Treasury on the following question:
      Does Article 6 of Regulation (EC) No 883/2004, on the coordination of social security systems (cf. also Article 21(3) of the Regulation), oblige an EEA State, when calculating payments in connection with maternity/paternity leave, to calculate reference income on the basis of a person’s aggregate wages on the labour market across the entire European Economic Area? Does it infringe the aforementioned provision and the principles of the EEA Agreement (see, for example, Article 29 EEA) if only a person’s aggregate wages on the domestic labour market are taken into account?
