In this article, we review developments in the case law of the European Court of Justice and Court of Human Rights in the period April to June 2011. In contrast to the last issue which focussed on a number of key judgments – mainly involving an interpretation of the Treaty provisions − that look likely to have an important impact on social security issues, this issue returns to the more mundane case law of the two courts on issues such as the co-ordination of social security for migrants and the application of the right to fair hearing and non-discrimination in the field of social security. However, the Römer case does mark an important confirmation of the Court of Justice’s earlier ruling (in Maruko) on discrimination on grounds of sexual orientation.
