Humbel: the Initiative makes it harder
The established parties, the young trust it not to intimate, timely reform of the pension system for the relief of the younger generations, the Elevator silent. Switzerland is behind here, compared to other European countries, in the majority of the pension age up to 2030 increases to 67 years.

CVP national councillor
The Federal Council has sent in August, a further calls for an AHV Reform to Parliament. These retirement age of 65 for women and an increase in VAT provides. The Parliament begins next year with the advice, and the referendum could take place in 2021 or 2022. Probably the template for a ” Yes ” of the people, in 2023 will come into force, providing for a retirement age of 65 for women 2027 would be reached. It goes to the Young liberals, would the increase for both men and women seamlessly.
From the point of view of the CVP national councillor Ruth Humbel of the pension initiative can be difficult for the Federal Council’s Reform. “It confuses the population only when the next step will be discussed, while the next is not done yet.” First, the retirement age of 65 for women with a supplementary financing had to be under a roof, before a further retirement age increase would be planned.
