“Article 12 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1612/68 on freedom of movement for workers within the Community conferred on the person who was the primary carer of a migrant worker’s or former migrant worker’s child who was attending educational courses in the host member state a right of residence in that state, although the provision could not be interpreted as conferring such a right on the person who was the primary carer of the child of a self-employed person. Article 16(1) of Parliament and Council Directive 2004/38/EC on the right of citizens of the Union and their family members to move and reside freely within the territory of the member states meant that a European Union citizen who was a national of a member state which had recently acceded to the European Union could, pursuant to that provision, rely on a right of permanent residence where he or she had resided in the host member state for a continuous period of more than five years, part of which had been completed before the accession of the former state to the European Union, provided that the residence was in accordance with the conditions laid down in article 7(1) of Directive 2004/38.”

In re Proceedings against Lopes Da Silva Jorge: (Case C-42/11); [2012] WLR (D) 263
“Article 4(6) of Council Framework Decision 2002/584/JHA of 13 June 2002 on the European arrest warrant and the surrender procedures between member states and article 18FEU meant that, although a member state might, in transposing article 4(6), decide to limit the situations in which an executing judicial authority might refuse to surrender a person who fell within the scope of that provision, it could not automatically and absolutely exclude from its scope the nationals of other member states staying or resident in its territory irrespective of their connections with it. The national court was required, taking into consideration the whole body of domestic law and applying the interpretative methods recognised by it, to interpret that law, so far as possible, in the light of the wording and the purpose of Framework Decision 2002/584, with a view to ensuring that the Framework Decision was fully effective and achieved an outcome consistent with the objective pursued by it.”
