Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the insured was entitled to a full invalidity pension from 1 June 2008 because of aging alone
Decisione estratta
No. The passage of time and increasing age, without a relevant change in the medical or economic circumstances, cannot justify increasing a pension on revision.
Motivazione estratta
A staged pension or later increase must satisfy the requirements of revision under Art. 17(1) LPGA. Age may matter at the initial assessment or indirectly in the invalidity calculation, but the mere lapse of time is not a revision ground because it is not a change in health and would otherwise automatically enlarge partial pensions near retirement age.
