THE ADMINISTRATIVE COMMISSION OF THE EUROPEAN COMMUNITIES ON SOCIAL SECURITY FOR MIGRANT WORKERS,

Having regard to Article 81(a) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 1408/71 of 14 June 1971 on the application of social security schemes to employed persons, to self-employed persons and to members of their family moving within the Community^f1, pursuant to which it is the duty of the Administrative Commission to deal with all administrative matters arising from Regulation (EEC) No 1408/71 and subsequent regulations,

Having regard to Article 2(1) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 574/72^f2, pursuant to which it is the duty of the Administrative Commission to draw up models of certificates, certified statements, declarations, applications and other documents necessary for the application of the regulations,

Having regard to Decision No 153^f3 on the model forms necessary for the application of these Regulations (E 001, E 103 to E 127),

Having regard to Decision No 170^f4 concerning the compilation of the lists provided for in Article 94(4) and Article 95(4) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 574/72,

Whereas:

It is necessary to update the forms to take account of changes to national legislation in the Member States.

The current structure of form E 108 as shown in Decision No 153 does not allow the institution in the place of residence to notify the competent institution of the cessation of entitlement to health benefits affecting both the pensioner and any members of his or her family residing in a Member State other than the competent State.

The amendment of form E 108 requires certain amendments to Decision No 170 to adapt it to the new function of form E 108.

The one-year validity of form E 121 issued by German, French, Italian and Portuguese institutions can only relate to the application of Article 30, and not Article 29, of Regulation (EEC) No 574/72,

HAS DECIDED AS FOLLOWS:
