43Admittedly, Union citizens and their family members who, after the period allowed for leaving the territory or the extension of that period has expired, have failed to comply with an expulsion decision taken against them on grounds of public policy or public security, cannot rely on a right of residence, under Directive 2004/38, in the territory of the host Member State while that decision continues to have effect (see, by analogy, judgment of 22 June 2021, Staatssecretaris van Justitie en Veiligheid (Effects of an expulsion decision), C‑719/19, paragraph 104). However, the existence of such a decision does not in any way alter the restrictive nature of a detention measure, which places limitations on an individual’s movements beyond those arising from the expulsion decision itself, restricting the opportunities for the individual concerned to stay and to move freely outside the territory of the host Member State throughout the period of that individual’s detention. Such a detention measure thus constitutes a restriction on the right of exit laid down in Article 4(1) of Directive 2004/38, which expressly provides that all Union citizens with a valid identity card or passport have the right to leave the territory of a Member State to travel to another Member State (judgment of 10 July 2008, Jipa, C‑33/07, EU:C:2008:396, paragraph 19).
