It would, in my view, be incorrect - and the European Union would impose artificial restrictions on itself - if the Commission were to restrict the directive to be proposed to pension schemes which only cover biometric risks and if it were to exclude other pension provisions which, although they are full pension provisions because they cannot be collected before pensionable age, should nonetheless still be excluded from the directive, according to a number of delegates.
Det er efter min mening forkert, og Den Europæiske Union pålægger sig derved kunstigt begrænsninger, hvis Kommissionen indskrænker det kommende direktiv til kun at omfatte pensionssystemer, der kun dækker biometriske risici, og udelukker andre pensionsformer, der ganske vist er rigtige pensionsforanstaltninger, fordi de ikke kan hæves inden pensionsdatoen, men som ifølge nogle af Parlamentets medlemmer ikke desto mindre skal udelukkes fra direktivet.
