Language of the case: Italian
Applicant: Istituto Nazionale della Previdenza Sociale
Defendant: Francesco Faggiano
1.Must the rules of EU law laid down in Regulation (EEC) No 1408/1971 of the Council of 14 June 1971 (1) and Council Regulation (EC) No 1606/1998 of 29 June 1998 (2) be interpreted to the effect that a request for aggregation of social security contributions made to several pension funds, in particular in the home Member State and in another Member State of the European Union, may not be made by a person already in receipt of a pension?
2.Does Article 49(1)(b)(ii) of Regulation (EEC) No 1408/1971 of the Council of 14 June 1971 preclude a national rule such as the Italian rule laid down in Article 71 of Law No 388 of 23 December 2000, according to which a request for aggregation of social security contributions made to several pension funds, in particular in the home Member State and in another Member State of the European Union, is confined to those who have not yet acquired the right to a pension from any social security fund?
