The court was guided by the fact that the preferential old-age pension, assigned under Law No. 1788-XII, is not a separate type of pension provision, but only provides preferential conditions (reduction of retirement age) for the assignment of a regular old-age pension. Since such a pension is assigned and paid in accordance with the procedure and conditions of Law No. 1058-IV, persons who are already receiving a preferential old-age pension are not entitled to re-assignment of the same type of pension on general grounds. In this case, the Supreme Court deviated from its previous position, which allowed such a possibility.
