Vaststelling van de begrotingsstaat van het Spaarfonds AOW voor het jaar 2009
This procedure concerns the formal adoption by the Dutch House of Representatives of the annual budget statement (begrotingsstaat) for the AOW Savings Fund (Spaarfonds AOW) for 2009. The AOW is the Dutch state old-age pension. The Savings Fund is a dedicated national fund that sets aside money to help cover future AOW costs, and its yearly budget sets out its planned income and spending for the year. Parliament's approval gives the fund's budget legal authority. This summary is based on metadata only, not the full legislative text. The direct subjects are the managers of the AOW Savings Fund and the government bodies that oversee it. Indirectly, the budget affects current and future AOW pension recipients and taxpayers, since the fund is intended to help finance pension costs over the long term.
