Name of legal analyst: Date Table completed: October 2008 Achilleas Demetriades, Theodora Christodoulidou, Nikolas Kyriakou Contact details: achilleas@ldlaw.com.cy, nikolas@ldlaw.com.cy, theodora@ldlaw.com.cy Country CPRUS Introduction The Directive was initially transposed by Law 92(I)/2003. This law was later repealed by Law 7(I)/2007. Both instruments bear the name The Right of Union Citizens and their Family Members to Move and Reside Freely within the Territory of the Republic Law of 2003 and 2007 respectively. The Republic of Cyprus transposed the Directive in a timely manner. The laws were passed by the House of Representatives ( Parliament), as it happens under the standard procedure of promulgation of laws. Having completed the ToC, we have observed that Cyprus has opted in general for a literal or effective transposition. This secures that the text of the law is in harmony with EU legislation and that no discrepancies arise in relation to its interpretation. However, we have identified several instances of incorrect transposition. Further to this, the judgments of the Supreme Court of Cyprus have given us an indicator as to how the Administration (represented by the Law Office of the Republic before the Courts) understands certain rights and obligations of Law 7(I)/2007. In general, we find that the overall quality of the transposition is very good with certain instances which an amendment is needed to bring the whole text of Law 7(I)/2007 in full conformity with the Directive.

Chapter I Art. 2.1 Complete text of (in language of GENERAL PROVISIONS Part Ι Μέρος Ι ΓΕΝΙΚΕΣ ΙΑΤΑΞΕΙΣ Definitions For the purposes of this Directive: 1) "Union citizen" means any person having the ity of a Member State; Section (2) Ερµηνεία Για τους σκοπούς του παρόντος Νόµου, εκτός εάν από το κείµενο προκύπτει διαφορετική έννοια «Πολίτης της Ένωσης» σηµαίνει κάθε πρόσωπο που έχει την ιθαγένεια κράτους µέλους της Ευρωπαικής Ένωσης άλλου από τη ηµοκρατία, κατά τα διαλαµβανόµενα στο Άρθρο 17 της Συνθήκης, καθώς και κάθε πρόσωπο που έχει την ιθαγένεια κράτους συµβαλλόµενου µέρους του Ε.Ο.Χ. Chapter I GENERAL PROVISIONS Interpretation For the purposes of this Law, except if indicated otherwise in the text: Union citizen means any person having the ity of a Member State of the European Union other than the Republic, pursuant to Article 17 of the Treaty, as well as any person having the ity of a state which is a contracting party to the EEA. N, Incorrect Incorrect transposition Wider definition as to who a union citizen is. It covers persons having the ity of a state party to the EEA. It is therefore more favorable. It also says other than the Republic - Although the idea of the legislator may be to exclude wholly situations, this definition may pose problems especially in cases of Cypriot citizens that have exercised their right of free movement. The law is not in concordance with the case law of the ECJ and of the Supreme Court of Cyprus. Art. 2.2 (a) Art. 2.2 (b) Art. 2.2 (c) 2) "Family member" means: (a) the spouse; (b) the partner with whom the Union citizen has contracted a registered partnership, on the basis of the legislation of a Member State, if the legislation of the host Member State treats registered partnerships as equivalent to marriage and in accordance with the conditions laid down in the relevant legislation of the host Member State; (c) the direct descendants who are under the age of 21 or are dependants and those of the spouse or partner as defined in point (b); Section (2) (a) Section (2) (b) «µέλος της οικογένειας» σηµαίνει (α) τον/την σύζυγο πολίτη της Ένωσης (β) τους απευθείας κατιόντες πολίτη της Ένωσης, οι οποίοι είναι ηλικίας κάτω των 21 ετών ή είναι συντηρούµενοι από αυτόν, καθώς και εκείνους του/της συζύγου του family member means: (a) the spouse of a Union citizen (b) the direct descendants of a Union citizen who are under the age of 21 or are dependants and those of the spouse, n/a Effective transposition. However, note the same comment as above. Not transposed because a registered partnership is not an institution which is provided for by law in Cyprus.

Beneficiaries This Directive shall apply to all Union citizens who move to or reside in a Member State other than that of which they are a, and to their family members as defined in point 2 of Article 2 who accompany or join them. Without prejudice to any right to free movement and residence the persons concerned may have in their own right, the host Member State shall, in accordance with its legislation, facilitate entry and residence for the following persons: (a) any other family members, irrespective of their ity, not falling under the definition in point 2 of Article 2 who, in the country from which they have come, are dependants or members of the household of the Union citizen having the primary right of residence, or where serious health grounds strictly require the personal care of the family member by the Union citizen; Directive 2004/38/EC on the right of citizens of the Union and their family members Section (2) (c) Section (4) (1) Section (4) (1) Section (4) (2) (a) Complete text of (in language of (γ) τους συντηρούµενους απευθείας ανιόντες πολίτη της Ένωσης, καθώς και εκείνους του/της συζύγου του «Ο παρών Νόµος εφαρµόζεται σε κάθε πολίτη της Ένωσης, ο οποίος αφίκνειται ή διαµένει στη ηµοκρατία» Πεδίο εφαρµογής του Νόµου (4) (1) Ο παρών Νόµος εφαρµόζεται σε κάθε πολίτη της Ένωσης, ο οποίος αφίκνειται ή διαµένει στη ηµοκρατία καθώς και στα µέλη της οικογένειάς του, ανεξαρτήτως ιθαγένειας, που τον συνοδεύουν κατά τη µετάβασή του στη ηµοκρατία ή που αφίκνειτι στη ηµοκρατία για να τον συνατήσουν (2) Χωρίς επηρεασµό τυχόν ιδίου δικαιώµατος ελεύθερης κυκλοφορίας και διαµονής των ενδιαφεροµένων διευκολύνεται η είσοδος και διαµονή στη ηµοκρατία σύµφωνα µε τον περί Αλλοδαπών και Μεταναστεύσεως Νόµο, των ακόλουθων προσώπων (α) Κάθε άλλου µέλους της οικογένειας, ανεξαρτήτως της ιθαγένειάς του, που δεν εµπίπει στον ορισµό που αποδίδεται στον όρο «µέλος της οικογένειας» από το άρθρο 2, εφόσον συντηρείται από τον πολίτη της Ένωσης που έχει πρωτογενές δικαίωµα διαµονής, ή συµβιώνει κάτω από την ίδια στέγη µε τον εν λόγω πολίτη της Ένωσης στην χώρα προέλευσης, ή εφόσον σοβαρί λόγοι υγείας καθιστούν απολύτως αναγκαία την προσωπική (c) the dependant direct relatives in the ascending line and those of the spouse; This law shall apply to all Union citizens who move to or reside in the Republic Field of application of this Law This Law shall apply to all Union citizens who move to or reside in the Republic and to their family members, irrespective of ity, who accompany them when they move to the Republic or arrive in the Republic to join them Without prejudice to any right to free movement and residence the persons concerned may have in their own right, entry to and residence in the Republic, in accordance with the Aliens and Migration Law, shall be facilitated for the following persons: (a) any other family members irrespective of their ity, not falling under the definition of family member in Article 2 who, in the country from which they have come, are dependants or members of the house hold of the Union citizen having the primary right of residence, or where serious health grounds strictly require the personal care of the family member by the Union citizen; and Milieu Ltd & Europa Institute CPRUS 3/51 See comment above Effective transposition Almost literal transposition The competent authorities and the Law Office of the Republic seem to be interpreting this as excluding Cypriot citizens. However, the case law of the Supreme Court of Cyprus and of the ECJ have interpreted this as including all EU citizens, including own s. The reference to legislation is correctly transposed as a reference to the Aliens Migration law the procedures of which are used in the case of the present Directive. This imposes a general obligation upon the Administration to provide for this facilitation. If the Administration poses unreasonable obstacles or it unduly delays the perfomance of its duties, then it is not in compliance with this.
