Key legal question
What is the correct reference date for assessing a revision of the disability pension?
Extracted holding
The relevant comparison point was the last merits-based and final decision of 8 June 2001, not the original pension grant of 8 April 1994.
Extracted reasoning
A revision under Art. 17 ATSG requires comparing the current situation with the last final decision based on a proper substantive assessment of health and earning capacity.
