Questione giuridica chiave
Whether UN family-type benefits exclude Swiss family allowances under the anti-cumulation rules.
Decisione estratta
No. UN child-related indemnities are not family allowances of the same kind under the Federal Family Allowances Act, so the anti-cumulation rule does not apply.
Motivazione estratta
The Court held that Arts. 6 and 7 LAFam exhaustively regulate cumulation only for family allowances under Swiss law or cantonal law. UN benefits are paid on another legal basis, and legislative history shows a deliberate choice not to extend the prohibition to international organization benefits.
