Questione giuridica chiave
Whether the Departement des Innern was competent to order repayment of unlawfully received social welfare by decision.
Decisione estratta
Yes. The department was competent to examine and enforce repayment claims for social welfare by decision under the Social Welfare Act.
Motivazione estratta
Although § 164 SG contains no express competence rule, the court read the scheme, legislative history, and systematic context as showing that the canton retained competence for repayment orders; § 14 SG is a general provision for repayment of social benefits and the legislature did not intend to change the former allocation of powers.
