Welfare to strengthen the economy
By Aart Jan de Geus, Minister for Social Affairs and Employment and Chair of the 2005 OECD Social Affairs Ministerial Meeting
Published: March 2005
Like many OECD countries, the Netherlands is in the middle of a debate on how to amend the welfare state. Trends such as population ageing, globalisation, technological progress and individual freedoms make it necessary to consider changes to the social welfare system that go beyond adjusting benefit rates or sharpening financial incentives. A recent policy initiative by the Dutch government merits attention. We call it the individual life-cycle savings scheme (levensloopregeling).

Given the aging population, the CPB said the cabinet's plans regarding the VUT, pre-pension and the "levensloopregeling" (life savings scheme) was an "unwise policy". The planning bureau refuted cabinet wishes and said there was no pressing reason to implement the plans quickly. |
