Jørgensen v Foreningen af Speciallæger and Sygesikringens Forhandlingsudvalg, [2000] IRLR 726, ECJ Case C-226/98 on 6th April 2000.

regardless of what the position may be under the the Equal Pay Directive (75/117/EEC), it would be wrong to restrict consideration under the Equal Treatment Directive (76/207/EEC) to an overall assessment of the position to the exclusion of consideration of component parts of the general picture which are sufficiently important.
