Withdrawal of the proposal for one-time payments instead of pensions for state officials
September 5, 2024
The government has decided to withdraw the proposal that would replace multiple pensions for state officials with a one-time payment. Reactions from parties and the Audit Office led to new legislative proposals. Officials will have the option to renounce their pensions when they assume public office, based on their goodwill. The new regulation will not apply retroactively and will be implemented for future appointments after the 2026 elections.
