Act respecting the National Assembly

(chapter A-23.1, s. 106).

1. The Members of the National Assembly are covered by a survivor pension plan.

Decision 1609-1, s. 1.

2. A Member’s participation in the plan and entitlement to benefits begin on the day the Member is elected and end on the 31st day after the day on which the Member is defeated in an election, resigns or completes a term without being a candidate in the next election.

Decision 1609-1, s. 2.

3. On a Member’s death, the Member’s spouse receives a survivor pension equal to 40% of the Member’s basic salary and the Member’s dependent children, a survivor pension equal to 15% of the Member’s basic salary and apportioned among them in equal shares.

If no survivor pension is payable to a surviving spouse, the Member’s first dependent child gives entitlement to a survivor pension equal to 15% of the Member’s basic salary and the Member’s other dependent children, to a survivor pension equal to 10%. The total annual pension may not initially exceed 55% of the Member’s basic salary at the time of death and is apportioned among the dependent children in equal shares.

Decision 1609-1, s. 3.
