Judgment_paragraph 21 · J.C. van Ardennen v Raad van bestuur van het Uitvoeringsinstituut werknemersverzekeringen (C-435/10)

21The referring court submits that such underlying rationale to the obligation to register raises the question whether income earned from work during the period in which the right to insolvency benefit exists may be deducted from the insolvency benefit. It refers to the judgment in Case C-373/95 Maso and Others [1997] ECR I-4051, in which the Court held that a Member State may not prohibit the aggregation of amounts guaranteed by Directive 80/987 with an allowance such as the allowance in question in the case giving rise to that judgment, because that allowance does not result from a contract or an employment relationship as it is paid to the worker only after his redundancy and therefore does not aim to remunerate activities carried out in the context of an employment relationship.
