Referring court

Parties to the main proceedings

Applicants: Sagrario, Joaquín, Prudencio

Defendant: Subdelegación del Gobierno en Barcelona

Operative part of the judgment

1.The second sentence of Article 15(3) of Council Directive 2003/86/EC of 22 September 2003 on the right to family reunification, must be interpreted as not precluding legislation of a Member State which does not provide that the competent national authority is required to issue, on account of the existence of ‘particularly difficult circumstances’, within the meaning of that provision, an autonomous residence permit to a sponsor’s family members where those family members have lost their residence permit for reasons beyond their control or where minor children are part of that family.

2.Article 17 of Directive 2003/86 must be interpreted as precluding legislation of a Member State which permits the competent national authority to adopt a decision refusing to renew a residence permit issued to a sponsor’s family members, without first carrying out an individual assessment of their situation or hearing them. Where that decision concerns a minor child, it is incumbent on the Member States to take all appropriate measures to offer that child a genuine and effective opportunity of being heard, in accordance with his or her age or degree of maturity.
