Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the appellant was entitled to exemption from the radio fee under Art. 45 ORTV
Extrahierter Entscheid
No. Exemption is reserved to persons entitled to AVS/AI supplementary benefits; the appellant did not meet that condition.
Extrahierte Begründung
The court upheld the Federal Council's scheme as a permissible, simple social-policy category system. The appellant only received a French pension and had not applied for Swiss supplementary benefits, so the statutory criteria were not satisfied.
