Legislator summary

AI generated

The Administrative Court upheld the Social Board's finding that a 17-year-old child could support themselves during a period of full unemployment benefit but not during a period receiving only 60% of the full amount. The Board determined the child's capacity to support themselves varied based on the specific net or gross benefit level received at different times. The court agreed with this distinction, ruling that the legal assessment of self-support must reflect the actual financial resources available to the child at the time in question.

Sosiaalilautakunnan vahvistamassa elatussopimuksessa oli

itsensä elättämisehto. Siltä ajalta (5.6.-4.9.1995), kun

kotona asuva 17-vuotias lapsi oli saanut kansaneläkelaitoksen

maksamaa työmarkkinatukea bruttomäärältään 118 markkaa

päivässä, lapsen katsottiin kyenneen elättämään itsensä

työmarkkinatuella. Siltä ajalta (5.9.-10.11.1995), kun lapsi

oli saanut 60 prosenttia täysimääräisestä työmarkkinatuesta,

lapsen ei katsottu kyenneen elättämään itseään työmarkkinatuen

nettomäärällä.
