   Reference for a preliminary ruling — Cour du travail — Interpretation of Article 21 TFEU and Articles 13 and 14c of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1408/71 of 14 June 1971 on the application of social security schemes to employed persons and to members of their families moving within the Community (OJ English Special Edition 1971 (II), p. 416) — Worker simultaneously employed in the territory of one Member State and self-employed in the territory of another Member State — Whether a person who is resident in another Member State and who manages from abroad a company which is liable to tax in that State is covered by the social security scheme for self-employed persons — Non-discrimination and citizenship of the European Union
   
      Operative part of the judgment
   
   EU law, in particular Articles 13(2)(b) and 14c(b) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1408/71 of 14 June 1971 on the application of social security schemes to employed persons, to self-employed persons and to members of their families moving within the Community, as amended by Council Regulation (EC) No 1606/98 of 29 June 1998, and Annex VII thereto, precludes national legislation such as that at issue in the main proceedings in so far as it allows a Member State to presume irrebuttably that management from another Member State of a company subject to tax in the first Member State has taken place in that first Member State.
