Judicial Summary

This decision deals with the requirement that a claimant must have been ‘living in’ in the common travel area for three months before entitlement to a jobseeker’s allowance can begin. It decides that: (a) ‘living in’ must be applied on its ordinary meaning and not as a modified form of habitual residence; and (b) the test is valid in EU law.
