Full text
292. Articles 2445 to 2459 of the Civil Code apply, with the necessary modifications, to the revocation of the designation of any person who, on 31 December 1989, is a beneficiary designated by a member.
A member may, however, where the beneficiary is his spouse and the designation has been made without a stipulation as to the revocability or irrevocability of the designation, render the designation revocable by way of a writing to that effect transmitted to the pension committee or to the insurer before 1 January 1992. If the member dies before that date and had not transmitted such a writing, the designation of his spouse is deemed to be revocable.
Within 12 months after 31 December 1989, the pension committee or the insurer shall transmit a copy of this section to every member to whom the second paragraph applies.
