64As is apparent from paragraphs 42 to 44 of the present judgment, Article 14(2) of Regulation No 1408/71 contributes to that objective in that it lays down rules which derogate from the rule of the Member State of employment laid down in Article 13(2)(a) of that regulation precisely in order to avoid the complications which, otherwise, might arise if the latter rule were to be applied to situations involving the pursuit of activities in two or more Member States. The same can be said of Article 13(1) of Regulation No 883/2004, which simplified the rules set out in Article 14(2) of Regulation No 1408/71 with the aim, like the latter provision, of avoiding such complications.
