At this stage, the different analytical reports to be delivered to the European Commission are being finalised. As already announced in the March newsletter, two reports will deal with the development of EU social security coordination in the near future and with an analysis of several specific proposals for amendments. A third report will be the two-yearly European report providing you with the most recent overview of implementation issues in the field of social security coordination.

Recently, earlier trESS reports on the coordination of long-term care benefits and of unemployment benefits were again hot topics, as they were presented at the working party of the Administrative Commission dealing with the potential revision of the Regulation in those domains.

As usual, the texts of the new reports will be published on the trESS website at the end of the year. We will further inform you on the above in our December 2013 newsletter.
