No discrimination on account of joint and several liability for social security debts in case of contracting and offsetting

29 July 2021

In a ruling of 8 July 2021, the Constitutional Court held that it is not discriminatory to hold a main contractor jointly and severally liable for the social security debts of his subcontractor if his debt to the subcontractor has been cleared through statutory offsetting. It concerns the matter referred to in article 30bis, §§3 and 4, fourth paragraph of the NSSO Act.
