Part VI. Employment injury benefit. Referring to its previous comments, the Committee notes with satisfaction the revision of the Federal Accident Insurance Act (LAA) approved on 25 September 2015, to give effect to Article 32(d) of the Convention (in conjunction with Article 69(j)) by amending the provisions of section 29 of the LAA under which the surviving spouse’s entitlement to benefit were subject to certain conditions where the marriage was contracted after the accident causing the decease of the insured person and allowed benefits to be refused or reduced when the surviving spouse has been in serious breach of his/her duties towards their children. In addition, in accordance with Article 34(1) and (2) of the Convention, section 10(3) of the LAA was also modified to authorize the Federal Council to fix the conditions, which must be fulfilled by an insured person to receive nursing care at home, which requires changes to be made to the regulation on accident insurance. The Government indicates that the revised Act and regulation will most likely enter into force on 1 January 2017. The Committee would be grateful if the Government would provide further information in this respect in its next report.
