Question juridique clé
Whether insurance years with the predecessor pension fund count toward the 10-year period for the supplementary pension under § 38 para. 3 PKTG Regulations.
Solution extraite
Only the insurance period with PKTG counts; prior insurance with the former SPK is not added. The supplementary pension is therefore reduced.
Motifs extraits
The wording, structure, and purpose of § 38 para. 3 PKTG point to separate insurance relationships for separate employment periods. No provision extends earlier periods on re-entry, and the transitional rule does not apply. The appellant's prior risk contributions do not create an individual entitlement beyond the collective financing system.
