The decision in the Grand Chamber was taken by 117 votes in favor and 62 against with 8 abstentions. Just as in the committee, a minority of the SP and the Greens opposed the proposal to no avail. This now goes to the Council of States.
According to the text of the motion, the abolition of child pensions in the AHV and occupational pension schemes should be accompanied by a simultaneous increase in supplementary benefits for parents with maintenance obligations. In addition, survivor’s pensions – also known as orphan’s pensions – and child pensions in the event of disability and their further payment at AHV age may not be affected.
According to the majority, existing old-age pensions for children should continue to be paid until the end of the eligibility requirements. The change should therefore only apply to new pensions.
