Art. 7 LMAP · Pension Provision

Every member of parliament receives, until the age of 65, a contribution towards old age, disability, and survivors' pension provision.

The contribution is paid by the Confederation: a. either to a pension institution chosen by the member and recognized by the Federal Act of June 25, 1982, on Occupational Old Age, Survivors, and Invalidity Pension Provision; b. or to a linked individual pension institution.

If a member's contribution towards pension provision cannot be or is not fully deposited with an institution under para. 2, the corresponding portion of this contribution is transferred to an affiliated pension fund chosen by Parliament from a non-registered pension institution.

Each member receives benefits in case of disability or death, to the extent that they cannot receive equivalent benefits from other occupational pension institutions or, if they are self-employed, from recognized forms of linked individual pension provision.

The Federal Assembly ordinance regulates the modalities.
