Abstract
This article examines the current status of EU law as regards making a right to social assistance dependent on having a legal right to reside in the ‘host’ member state. In particular, it looks at the recent decision by the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU) in Brey and discusses whether this ruling helps to clarify the legal position.
