The Court of Justice of the European Union Judgement of 6 September 2018 in the Hampshire case ruled that, in the event of employer insolvency, every former employee should receive no less than 50% of their accrued old age benefits (the minimum level) and that protection should never fall below this minimum level.
These regulations retain the effects of this Judgement in domestic legislation beyond 31 December.
