ATA/137/1997Cour de justice / Chambre administrative19 févr. 1997Other
The decision interprets Art. 17 let. a LEE for scholarship assessment. It holds that the family determining income consists of the income of the respondent and spouse, absent separation of bodies, after deduction of family allowances received within the limits set by Geneva family-allowance law. It further states that gross income under Art. 17 let. a LEE corresponds to the gross income communicated by the tax administration, with no room for an alternative definition based on the statutory text or legislative history.

Résumé
Par revenu déterminant du groupe familiale au sens de l'art. 17 litt. a, il faut entendre les revenus du répondant et de son conjoint, dans la mesure où il n'y a pas séparation de corps, après déduction du total des allocations familiales reçues jusqu'à concurrence du montant fixé par la législation genevoise sur les allocations familiales. Le revenu brut au sens de l'article 17 lettre a LEE correspond au revenu brut tel que communiqué par l'administration fiscale. Le texte de loi et les travaux parlementaires ne laissent pas la place à une autre conception du revenu déterminant.
