Vrijwillige Voortzetting has been used throughout the document, translated as Voluntary Continuation (of Coverage) for accrual of retirement/pension benefits.
"lopend" is a tricky one in this case. I want to say it means "current", but I'm not sure. Certainly doesn't mean "running". Sample sentence where it's used is below:
"Het systeem initieert de beëindiging van een deelname VV boven max (zie sectie Afhandelen *lopende* vrijwillige voortzetting boven max) als er sprake is van een *lopende* deelname VV boven max."

: As a Dutch native speaker, Mr Van Amerongen sometimes proposes very preculiar (and even wrong) solutions in his D>E dictionary.
