41By analogy with Article 12 of the Protocol, which establishes, in respect of EU officials, a uniform tax for the benefit of the European Union on salaries, wages and emoluments paid by it and, consequently, provides for an exemption from national taxes on those amounts, Article 14 of the Protocol, in that it confers on the EU institutions the power to establish the scheme of social security for their own civil servants, must be regarded as meaning that the compulsory affiliation of EU officials to a national social security scheme and the requirement for those officials to contribute to the funding of such a scheme are outside the jurisdiction of the Member States.
