"Entitlements for old-age pension during the period of employment
Employees who are employed after the conditions for entitlement to an old-age pension are entitled to an old-age pension, or a third of them or any other part thereof, depending on their employment category and age. The detailed arrangements for these entitlements shall be laid down by the Government, which shall also determine how those employees' pension rights shall be increased for each subsequent year of employment.

The education allowance does not apply to a child who is entitled to an orphan's pension or to whom the child allowance is payable (as provided for in the legislation on the material security of members of the armed forces). It is also not for a child who is not entitled to a child allowance because the staff member has not fulfilled the conditions laid down.

If someone is entitled to the same child's allowance under various pension regulations (insurance, provision), only higher education is granted.
(6) The education allowance is due until the completion of the compulsory education of the child and then under the same conditions as the orphan's pension.
(7) Where the child is under the care of a person other than a pensioner, the education allowance shall be paid to that person.
(8) Where a court designates child support, it shall also take into account the extent to which the needs of the child are met by the education provided for them; the maintenance allowance is not included. ';
5. Article 42 (1) reads as follows:
"(1) Where entitlement to an old-age pension is acquired during the period during which the sick pension is paid, the staff member's entitlement to and the amount of the old-age pension shall be assessed as well as that of the staff member who is employed. '
6. Where an old-age pension of one third is referred to in this Act or in regulations issued pursuant to it, this pension shall be understood as the part of the old-age pension provided by the Government under Paragraph 11.
(1) Old-age and invalidity pensions for employees' pension insurance, which were granted under the pension insurance rules in force before 1 January 1957 and which do not reach the amount of 400 CZK per month, are increased to that amount starting with the payment of the pension due in April 1959; This provision shall not, however, apply where entitlement to an old-age or invalidity pension is acquired after 31 December 1951 and the employee's pension insurance does not last for more than 10 years, unless entitlement to an invalidity pension has been incurred by an accident at work or before reaching the age of 30.
(2) The increase referred to in paragraph 1 shall not apply to pensioners covered by Act No 40 / 1958 Coll., on the adjustment of pensions of certain convicted persons, or Article III and IV of Act No 41 / 1958 Coll., on certain social security changes.
(3) The Government may gradually increase the pensions granted under the pension scheme of employees in force before 1 January 1957 up to the level of pensions granted under the pension scheme of employees in force from that date.
Adjustment of pensions and education
1. No 4 shall also apply to educational fees for which entitlement was acquired before 1 April 1959. The education fee shall be adjusted by starting with the payment of the education payable in April 1959.
(2) The pensions paid, which exceed the amounts referred to in Article 19 of Law No 55 / 1956 Coll. as amended by Article I No 3, will be adjusted to those amounts, starting with the payment of the pension due in June 1959. Similarly, pensions of survivors which have been assessed from pensions exceeding those amounts will be adjusted.
This Law shall take effect from 1 April 1959; it shall be carried out by all members of the Government.
