PAG LIN 1 1 Section 1. Section 96.5, subsection 5, paragraph c, Code 1 2 2003, is amended by striking the paragraph. 1 3 Sec. 2. Section 96.5, subsection 5, unnumbered paragraph 1 4 2, Code 2003, is amended to read as follows: 1 5 Provided, that if the remuneration is less than the 1 6 benefits which would otherwise be due under this chapter, the 1 7 individual is entitled to receive for the week, if otherwise 1 8 eligible, benefits reduced by the amount of the remuneration. 1 9 Provided further, if benefits were paid for any week under 1 10 this chapter for a period when benefits, remuneration or 1 11 compensation under paragraph "a",or "b", or "c",were paid on 1 12 a retroactive basis for the same period, or any part thereof, 1 13 the department shall recover the excess amount of benefits 1 14 paid by the department for the period, and no employer's 1 15 account shall be charged with benefits so paid. However, 1 16 compensation for service-connected disabilities or 1 17 compensation for accrued leave based on military service by 1 18 the beneficiary with the armed forces of the United States, 1 19 irrespective of the amount of the benefit, does not disqualify 1 20 any individual otherwise qualified from any of the benefits 1 21 contemplated herein.A deduction shall not be made from the1 22amount of benefits payable for a week for individuals1 23receiving federal social security pensions to take into1 24account the individuals' contributions to the pension program.1 25 EXPLANATION 1 26 This bill strikes the requirement that governmental and 1 27 other pensions or retirement pay be considered compensation 1 28 for determining if an individual is disqualified from 1 29 receiving unemployment benefits. Under current law, an 1 30 individual who is otherwise eligible for unemployment benefits 1 31 may be disqualified from benefits or may receive reduced 1 32 benefits if the individual receives income from a pension or 1 33 retirement plan during any week the individual is not 1 34 employed. 1 35 LSB 5500HH 80 2 1 kk/gg/14
