The principle of freedom to provide services precludes Netherlands legislation requiring prior authorisation for non-hospital care provided in another Member State by a non-contracted provider

The principle of freedom to provide services therefore precludes legislation such as the Netherlands legislation, which requires the insured to obtain prior authorisation, even under a benefits-in-kind scheme, in the case of non-hospital care provided in another Member State by a non-contracted provider.

The Court considers that the arguments put forward before it do not show that removal of the requirement for prior authorisation for non-hospital care would give rise to patients travelling to other countries in such large numbers (despite linguistic barriers, geographic distance, the cost of staying abroad and lack of information about the kind of care) that the financial balance of the Netherlands social security system would be seriously upset and that the overall level of public-health protection would be jeopardised, something which could constitute proper justification for a barrier to the fundamental principle of f ...[+++]reedom to provide services.

8. Notes the Secretary-General's statement that at present no disciplinary proceedings are pending within Parliament's administration; welcomes the fact that on 1 December 1999, i.e. even before the deliberations on the discharge for 1998, the Bureau, at the proposal of the Secretary-General, started an administrative inquiry; notes the Bureau decision of 13 June 2000, in connection with the Frederiksen case, not to seek redress as provided for by Article 22 of the Staff Regulations; notes that this decision is based on the consideration that the administrative inquiry did not reveal evidence of "serious misconduct" by individuals as ...[+++]referred to in Article 22 of the Staff Regulations; points out, however, that the administrative inquiry revealed both problems with internal decision-making procedures and a tendency to neglect risks associated with court cases in relation to alleged considerations of "principle"; concludes from the course of events that it would have been appropriate to review the case and reappraise the risks associated with legal proceedings at a considerably earlier stage; recalls paragraph 23 of its above-mentioned resolution of 13 April 2000, calling on the Legal Service to inform the Bureau about the risks of court cases before the Bureau takes its decisions, particularly in the light of previous judgements on staff matters; welcomes the Bureau decision of 13 June 2000 instructing Vice-Presidents Lienemann and Provan to examine whether further internal administrative reforms are needed in order to avoid similar outcomes; instructs its Bureau to inform the competent committees about its conclusions on this matter;
