Judgment_paragraph 39 · European Commission v Federal Republic of Germany (C-206/10)

39With regard to the argument put forward by the Federal Republic of Germany concerning the different fields of application of Regulations No 1612/68 and No 1408/71, it is sufficient to note that, although those two regulations do not have the same scope ratione personae, the fact remains that, since Regulation No 1612/68 is of general application as regards the free movement of workers, Article 7(2) thereof may apply to social advantages which, at the same time, fall specifically within the scope of Regulation No 1408/71 (Case C-111/91 Commission v Luxembourg [1993] ECR I-817, paragraphs 20 and 21, and Case C-85/96 Martínez Sala [1998] ECR I-2691, paragraph 27).
