Judgment of 22 Oct 2015law://eu/cjeu/2014/c-378-14/para_43@2026-11-10

43To answer that question, it should be recalled, as a preliminary point, that Regulations No 987/2009 and No 883/2004 do not determine the persons entitled to family benefits, even though they lay down the rules which enable the persons entitled to claim those benefits to be determined.
