Legislator summary

The Insurance Court dismissed the claim for a succession allowance, ruling that the transfer of actual control over the farm occurred in December 1980, not January 1981. Although the recipient student was enrolled in motherhood school until late December and worked weekends, the court found the tenant farmer retained effective management until the end of the year. Consequently, the allowance was not granted because the statutory condition of control transfer was not met at the required time.

Koska luovutuksensaaja opiskeli emäntäkoulussa 23.12.1980 saakka, MELA määräsi sukupolvenvaihdoseläkkeen alkamaan 1.1.1981 lukien. Tilan tosiasiallisen hallinnan katsottiin siirtyneen vasta joulukuussa 1980, vaikka luovutuksensaaja ilmoittikin tehneensä tilan työt viikonloppuisin. Eläkelautakunnan päätöstä ei muutettu. VI -jaosto
