               Is Article 24(2) of Directive 2004/38 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 29 April 2004 (1) compatible with Article 12 EC in conjunction with Article 39 EC?

               If the answer to question 1 is in the negative, does Article 12 EC in conjunction with Article 39 EC preclude national rules which exclude Union citizens from receipt of social assistance if the maximum period of residence permitted under Article 6 of Directive 2004/38 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 29 April 2004 has been exceeded and there is no right of residence under other provisions?
