In 2019, the government and the social partners reached an agreement on the reform of the pension system. Since then, the agreement has been elaborated in a bill: the Future Pensions Act. The cabinet has now sent this bill to the Council of State for advice.
What now?
The Council of State considers the bill and issues advice on it. The cabinet will then submit the proposal to the House of Representatives, together with the advice of the Council of State. This is expected to take place in the spring of 2022. After consideration in the House of Representatives, the bill will go to the Senate. The Future Pensions Act is expected to enter into force on 1 January 2023.
