Decisions have recently been given by the European Court of Justice in Luxembourg which are of vital importance for the cause of equality between men and women. They demonstrate the relevance of the European provisions on equal pay and opportunity and serve to warn that no one who has a complaint on this subject can afford to be unaware of the European law. Five cases have been referred by the UK courts to the European court and each concerns equal pay and opportunity between men and women. The individuals have been assisted by the Equal Opportunities Commission (EOC), a statutory body in the UK. The individual's trade unions have also given assistance in some of the cases.
