The Council STRESSES that the adoption of measures to counteract the financial effects of the expected gains in longevity, such as the extension of working lives and an increase in retirement age in line with gains in longevity, is a key issue and should merit serious consideration in Member States.
Nõukogu RÕHUTAB, et meetmete vastuvõtmine eluea pikenemisest tuleneva loodetava kasuga (nt tööea pikenemine ja pensioniea tõus kooskõlas eluea pikenemisest tuleneva kasuga) seonduvate finantsmõjude tasakaalustamiseks on äärmiselt oluline küsimus ja peaks väärima tõsist kaalumist liikmesriikides.
