Supreme Court dismissed appeal regarding inability to fix separation allowance due to lack of specific statutory basis.

The Supreme Court of Finland dismissed the appeal challenging the inability to fix a separation allowance for a specific period. The appellant argued that the law did not permit setting a fixed duration for this allowance, while the state contended that the existing legal framework required such determination. The court ruled that without explicit statutory authorization, the administrative body lacked the power to establish a fixed term for the allowance.
