On this point, it suffices to state that the considerations set out in paragraphs 47 to 59 above in response to the second and third questions hold good, with all the greater reason, with regard to legislation entailing an additional restriction compared with the scheme applicable following the adoption of the Decree of 30 April 2004, given that that legislation excluded from its ambit all persons working in the Dutchspeaking region or the bilingual region of Brussels-Capital but having their residence in another Member State, including therefore persons resident in another Member State.
V zvezi s tem je treba ugotoviti, da ugotovitve iz točk od 47 do 59 te sodbe kot odgovor na drugo in tretje vpra�anje �e bolj utemeljeno veljajo za predpise, ki vsebujejo dodatno omejitev v primerjavi s sistemom, ki se uporablja po sprejetju dekreta z dne 30. aprila 2004, glede na to, da so ti predpisi s svojega področja uporabe izključili vse osebe, ki opravljajo poklicno dejavnost v nizozemsko govoreči regiji ali v dvojezični regiji glavnega mesta Bruselj, vendar pa imajo stalno prebivali�če zunaj teh dveh regij, vključno torej z osebami, ki stalno prebivajo v drugi državi članici.
The reply to be given to the fourth question is therefore that on a proper construction of Articles 39 EC and 43 EC, legislation of a federated entity of a Member State limiting affiliation to a social security scheme and entitlement to the benefits provided by that scheme to persons residing in that entity’s territory is contrary to those articles, in so far as such limitation affects nationals of other Member States working in that entity’s territory or nationals of the Member State concerned who have made use of their right to freedom of movement within the European Community.
Na četrto vpra�anje je treba torej odgovoriti, da je treba člena 39 ES in 43 ES razlagati tako, da nasprotujeta predpisom zvezne enote države članice, ki omejujejo vstop v sistem socialnega varstva in ugodnost dajatev, ki jih ta predvideva, le na osebe, ki stalno prebivajo na ozemlju te enote, če taka omejitev prizadene državljane drugih držav članic, ki opravljajo poklicno dejavnost na ozemlju navedene enote oziroma domače državljane, ki so uporabili pravico do prostega gibanja v Evropski skupnosti.

A survivor’s benefit falls within the scope of Council Directive 2000/78 establishing a general framework for equal treatment in employment and occupation where that benefit is paid under an occupational pension scheme managed by a pension fund for a particular category of workers, where that scheme originates in a collective agreement which is designed to supplement the social security benefits payable under national legislation of general scope, where that scheme is financed exclusively by the workers and employers of the sector concerned, without any financial involvement by the State, and is aimed, according to that agreement, at that category of workers, and where the amount of the benefit concerned is determined by reference to the period of membership of the worker who was the partner of the entitled recipient and to the total amount of the contributions paid by that worker.
Za izplačilo za preživele osebe se uporablja Direktiva 2000/78 o splo�nih okvirih enakega obravnavanja pri zaposlovanju in delu, če je to izplačilo dodeljeno v okviru sistema poklicnega socialnega zavarovanja, ki ga upravlja pokojninski zavod posebne skupine delavcev, če je pravna podlaga tega sistema kolektivna pogodba, katere cilj je oblikovati dodatek k socialnim izplačilom, ki se izplačajo na podlagi splo�ne nacionalne ureditve, če navedeni sistem financirajo izključno zaposleni in delodajalci zadevnega sektorja, brez vsakr�nega javnega financiranja in je v skladu s to kolektivno pogodbo namenjen navedeni skupini delavcev ter če je znesek zadevnega izplačila, določen glede na trajanje zavarovanja delavca, ki je zakonec upravičenca, in glede na znesek vseh prispevkov, ki jih je plačal navedeni delavec.

The case is thus part of the long process of accepting homosexuality, 3 which is a vital step towards achieving equality and respect for all human beings.
I – Uvod sprejemanja homoseksualnosti 3kot nujna stopnja za dosego enakosti in spo�tovanja vseh ljudi.
The Bayerisches Verwaltungsgericht Munchen (Bavarian Administrative Court, Munich) (Germany) has referred to the Court for a preliminary ruling under Article 234 EC five questions on the interpretation of Council Directive 2000/78/EC of 27 November 2000 establishing a general framework for equal treatment in employment and occupation (‘the Directive’). 2
Bayerisches Verwaltungsgericht (upravno sodi�če) iz Münchna je na podlagi člena 234 ES Sodi�ču predložilo pet vpra�anj za predhodno odločanje v zvezi z razlago Direktive Sveta 2000/78/ES z dne 27. novembra 2000 o splo�nih okvirih enakega obravnavanja pri zaposlovanju in delu. 2
The referring court seeks to ascertain whether the claim of the claimant in the main proceedings falls within the scope of the Directive (first and second questions); whether there is discrimination on grounds of sexual orientation, contrary to the Directive (third and fourth questions); and whether there must be a restriction ratione temporis of entitlement to the pension (fifth question).
Predložitveno sodi�če želi preveriti, ali očitek tožeče stranke v sporu o glavni stvari spada na področje direktive (prvo in drugo vpra�anje) ali obstaja neenakost zaradi spolne usmerjenosti, ki jo ta predpis prepoveduje (tretje in četrto vpra�anje) in bi moralo biti priznanje pravice časovno omejeno (peto vpra�anje).
The proceedings arose as a result of the refusal to award a pension to the survivor of a same-sex partnership between individuals who had not married because, under national law, marriage is restricted to heterosexual
Spor je nastal zaradi nepriznanja pokojnine preživelemu partnerju skupnosti istospolnih partnerjev, ki nista sklenila zakonske zveze, saj je po nacionalnem pravu zakonska zveza možna le med heteroseksualnimi pari; slednja se torej uvr�ča v dolgotrajen proces
The provision was included in the Criminal Code of the German Empire in 1871.
451, navaja, da je pojem „homoseksualnost“ prvič uporabil nem�ko-madžarski pisatelj in prevajalec Karl Maria Kertbeny (1824–1882) leta 1869, da bi se odzval na člen v pruskem kazenskem zakoniku, ki je spolne odnose med mo�kimi kaznoval kot delikt; Kertbeny je zaman zahteval njegovo razveljavitev.
The seriousness of the offence was increased under the Third Reich and it remained in force in the Federal Republic until 1969.
Določba je bila leta 1871 vključena v Kazenski zakonik Nem�kega cesarstva; pozneje, v času tretjega rajha, se je povečala teža kaznivega dejanja, ki se je v Zvezni republiki ohranilo do leta 1969.
In the 1880s, Kertbeny’s neologism attracted the attention of the well-known sexologist Richard von Krafft-Ebing, who included it in his work Psychopathia sexualis, which was very popular in the period 1886-87, and its use spread in clinical and scientific circles at the end of the nineteenth century.
V 80. letih 19. stoletja je Kertberryjev neologizem zbudil pozornost znanega seksologa Richarda von Krafft-Ebinga, ki ga je vključil v svoje delo Psychopathia sexualis, ki je bilo zelo priljubljeno v letih 1886–87 in je bilo konec 19. stoletja znano v kliničnih in znanstvenih krogih.

Accordingly, it is necessary to analyse two matters: the definition of the concept of pay vis-à-vis the concept of social security benefit, and the concept of discrimination on grounds of sexual orientation.
Zato je treba nujno preučiti dva vidika: opredelitev pojma plačilo v primerjavi s prejemkom iz socialnega varstva in diskriminacijo zaradi spolne usmerjenosti.
While the Court has frequently considered the first matter, it has dealt with the second on only a few occasions.
Sodna praksa je pogosto preučevala prvi vidik, drugega pa le nekajkrat.
The Treaty of Nice 5 added a paragraph 2 to Article 13 EC, pursuant to which:
Pogodba iz Nice 5odstavek 2, ki določa:
By way of derogation from paragraph 1, when the Council adopts Community incentive measures, excluding any harmonisation of the laws and regulations of the Member States, to support action taken by the Member States in order to contribute to the achievement of the objectives referred to in paragraph 1, it shall act in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 251.’

The Treaty of Amsterdam 4inserted into the EC Treaty a new version of Article 13(1),
Amsterdamska pogodba 4 je v Pogodbo ES vključila novo besedilo člena 13(1), ki določa:
The Directive was adopted on the basis of Article 13 EC, and it is important to draw attention to a number of its recitals.
Na podlagi člena 13 ES je bila sprejeta že omenjena direktiva, iz katere je zanimivo poudariti nekaj uvodnih izjav.

Recital 22 states that the Community rules are ‘without prejudice to national laws on marital status and the benefits dependent thereon’.
Ta direktiva ne vpliva na nacionalne predpise glede zakonskega stanu in ugodnosti, ki temeljijo na njem.“ Dvaindvajseta uvodna izjava opozarja, da pravila Skupnosti ne vplivajo „na nacionalne predpise glede zakonskega stanu in ugodnosti, ki temeljijo na njem“.
Article 3 concerns the scope of the Directive:
Člen 3 določa „področje uporabe“:
Article 1 of the Directive states that the aim of that measure is ‘to lay down a general framework for combating discrimination on the grounds of religion or belief, disability, age or sexual orientation as regards employment and occupation, with a view to putting into effect in the Member States the principle of equal treatment.’
V mejah pristojnosti, ki so prenesene na Skupnost, se ta direktiva uporablja za vse osebe, bodisi v javnem bodisi v zasebnem sektorju […], kar zadeva:
Within the limits of the areas of competence conferred on the Community, this Directive shall apply to all persons, as regards both the public and private sectors …, in relation to:
V skladu s členom 1 je namen te direktive vzpostaviti „splo�ni okvir boja proti diskriminaciji zaradi vere ali prepričanja, hendikepiranosti, starosti ali spolne usmerjenosti pri zaposlovanju in delu, zato da bi v državah članicah uresničevali načelo enakega obravnavanja“.

Article 2 defines the concept of discrimination, differentiating in paragraph 1 between direct and indirect discrimination.
Člen 2 dopu�ča „diskriminacijo“, s tem da v odstavku 1 ločuje med neposredno in posredno.
In accordance with paragraph 2, ‘direct discrimination shall be taken to occur where one person is treated less favourably than another is, has been or would be treated in a comparable situation, on any of the grounds referred to in Article 1’, while ‘indirect discrimination shall be taken to occur where an apparently neutral provision, criterion or practice would put persons having a particular religion or belief, a particular disability, a particular age, or a particular sexual orientation at a particular disadvantage compared with other persons’.
V skladu z odstavkom 2 gre za „neposredno diskriminacijo, kadar je, je bila ali bi bila oseba obravnavana manj ugodno kakor neka druga v primerljivi situaciji zaradi katerega od razlogov iz člena 1“; in „posredno diskriminacijo, kadar je zaradi kak�ne navidez nevtralne določbe, merila ali prakse neka oseba določene vere ali prepričanja, ki ima
