Facts Robins had been employed by a now insolvent company. He had a final salary pension. The company terminated the scheme and then told everyone there was not enough money to cover members benefits. They announced they would reduce benefits for members who had not yet started to receive pension payments. Robins claimed compensation from the Secretary of State for not providing the proper level of social protection under Directive 80 987 art 8. David Pannick QC was acting for the government. The High Court asked the ECJ whether the member state needed to fund a scheme that had run out of money, and whether the UK had properly transposed the Directive. If not, should the UK incur liability? Judgment Judge Timmermans in the ECJ held that the member state did not require pension funds should be fully guaranteed, because the member state could oblige insurers to buy insurance. However, Robins would gain benefits as low as 20 of entitlement, so the UK s scheme under the Pensions Act 2004 section 286 establishing the Financial Assistance Scheme did not protect workers like Robins within the meaning of art 8, so the provision was improperly implemented. A Member State s liability was contingent on a finding of manifest and grave disregard by that state for the limits set on its discretion, Brasserie du Pecheur SA v Germany . ref 1996 QB 404 C 46 93 ref To answer what that meant the national court would have to take ... more details

Facts Ms Reynolds was under 25 in a council flat, on jobseekers and income support. She got 41.35 and if she was over 25 she would have got 52.20. She claimed this breached Article 14 ECHR . The Secretary of State said 18 24 year olds earn less, mostly do not live independently, they should be discouraged from living independently, there is welfare support for this group in other ways, and good administration depends on clear rules like this. Judgment House of Lords The House of Lords accepted the Secretary of State s arguments. Lord Walker drew on US law San Antonio School District v. Rodriguez 1973 411 US 1 Massachusetts Board of Retirement v. Murgia 1976 427 US 307 and Lord Nicholls in Ghaidan v. Godin Mendoza 2004 2 AC 557, 568, saying they would intensely scrutinise race, sex and orientation justifications. But age was not in that. It is a personal characteristic, said Lord Walker, but it is different in kind from other personal characteristics. Every human being starts life as a tiny infant and none of us can do anything to stop the passage of the years. Lines must be drawn somewhere, and following Murgia , drawing lines which create distinctions is peculiarly a legislative task and an unavoidable one. Perfection in making the necessary classifications is neither possible nor necessary. It was also noted that the age qualification had replaced a previous unworkable qualification of householders and non householders. European Court of Human Rights The ECHR rejected Ms Carson s claim. ref 2010 http www.bailii.org eu cases ECHR 2010 338.html ECHR 338 ref See also UK employment discrimination law UK labour law Human ... 2005 in case law Category 2005 in the United Kingdom Category Department for Work and Pensions ... more details
