Paragraph Article 11
Where a person has, since his last arrival in the territory of one State, completed a contribution period under the legislation of that State, then for the purpose of any claim for sickness benefit made under the legislation of that State, any insurance period, completed under the legislation of the other State shall, subject to the provisions of Article 10 of this Convention, be treated as if it were an insurance period completed under the legislation of the former State.
Where a person has, since his last arrival in the territory of one State, completed an insurance period under the legislation of that State, then for benefit in respect of childbirth, any insurance period completed under the legislation of the other State shall, subject to the provisions of Article 10 of this Convention, be treated as if it were an insurance period completed under the legislation of the former State.
Where a person is entitled to sickness benefit under the legislation of one State he shall be entitled to receive that benefit during a temporary stay in the territory of the other State. This provision applies mutatis mutandis to maternity allowance under the legislation of the United Kingdom and parental benefit under the legislation of Sweden.
Where, but for the provisions of this paragraph, a person would be entitled to sickness benefit or benefit in respect of childbirth under the legislation of both States for the same period by virtue of paragraph (1) or (2), respectively, of this Article, that benefit shall be granted exclusively under the legislation of the State in whose territory he is present.
