Free movement and special non contributory benefits for disabled people between the devil and the deep blue sea. The question at issue is whether the denial of exportability of special non contributory benefits on the ground that they are solely specific protection for the disabled, closely linked to the said persons social environment in the Member State concerned discriminates against people with a disability There are two forms of discrimination Direct discrimination and Indirect discrimination. Article 2 of Council Directive 2. EC defines each as adirect discrimination shall be taken to occur where one person is treated less favourably than another is, has been or would be treated in a comparable situation, on any of the grounds referred to in Article 1 1. The comparator. To demonstrate discrimination in cases of direct and indirect discrimination, it is necessary to identify a comparator. Unfavourable treatment will be relevant to making a determination of discrimination where it is unfavourable by comparison to someone in a similar situation Therefore a comparator is needed that is, a person in materially similar circumstances, with the main difference between the two persons being the protected ground. Arguably the comparator with respect to disabled people not being able to export a special non contributory benefit is insured persons without a disability. Insured persons without a disability are much less likely than disabled people to be subject to a limitation to the export of their benefits.

Conditions concerning continuity or duration of employment in the period directly preceding an application for an invalidity pension can result in depriving people on short term, temporary or part time employment contracts of the right to invalidity benefits. In many case study countries access to invalidity pensions could be restricted for workers with interrupted careers due to their long qualifying periods In France, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands and the UK, eligibility criteria that require minimum periods of employment or amount of contributions within given periods may lead to the exclusion of short term andor part time workers from access to invalidity pensions.
