The Supreme Court dismissed the cassation appeal against a decision suspending social pension payments due to the claimant's residence abroad. The Social Insurance Institution suspended payments because the claimant moved to the UK for studies, arguing this violated her right to free movement under EU law. The court ruled that the residence requirement is justified and permitted by Article 10a of Regulation 1408/71, citing a precedent where similar conditions were deemed lawful for non-contributory benefits.
