I spoke to a lady at the EU office in Brussels yesterday and she said that the UK was currently amending their EEA Regulations 2006, she said that some recent guidance (June, 2009) was despatched to all member states i think she meant the last web link in the letter.86ti wrote:As far as I can see this amendment mainly deals with changes in deportations and exclusions.First-Class Moron wrote:Once the recent amendment of the Immigration (European Economic Area) Regulations 2006 which became applicable on 1 June 2009 has been fully analysed, the Commission will contact the UK authorities to obtain clarifications.
Yes, the last link refers to the report from the Comission published June this year.

Yes, that's it. The SI 2006/1003 and SI 2009/1117 stil interprete 'residence card' as only the one issued by the UK.First-Class Moron wrote:is this it:
Residence cards issued under Article 10 of the Directive to a family member of an EU citizen residing in the host Member State , including those issued by other Member States, exempt their holders from the visa requirement when they travel together with the EU citizen or join him/her in the host Member State.
Residence cards not issued under the Directive can exempt the holder from the visa requirement under Schengen rules[22].

No news from them yet? Perhaps, you should consider lodging a complaint to EU commission or Solvit. Alternatively, you could send a complaint letter to the British High commission.
