As already announced, we are close to the adoption of a new regulation amending Regulation 883/2004 and Regulation 987/2009. It concerns the regulation containing the “miscellaneous amendments 2010” (see our April 2011 e-Newsletter), adapting the coordination system to the changes in the national social security systems and to the developments in cross-border mobility of citizens. It will be discussed in the plenary session of the European Parliament of 18 April 2012 and if voted on positively, the new regulation could be adopted in June 2012.
