CJEU - C-718/19, Ordre des barreaux francophones et germanophone and Others v Conseil des ministers
Country of applicant:
Belgium
The Court decides that the maximum period of detention for the purpose of removal of a person on the grounds of public policy or public security under Belgian law, according to which Union citizens and their family members are treated in the same way as third-country nationals subject to a return procedure, exceeds the principle of proportionality and thus does not comply with EU law.
