Berset wants to Register for the social detectives

In November, the people voted by a two-thirds majority of the statutory basis for the Observation of the Insured. Now a dispute over the small but printed flared up, the Federal Council shall regulate in the regulation. Civil members of the national Council's social Commission throw SP Federal councillor Alain Berset, to complicate the work of insurance detectives with unnecessary hurdles. They interfere mainly due to the fact that the Observation authorized detectives to be listed in a public Register, as President of the Commission, Thomas de Courten (SVP) says.

CVP national councillor Ruth Humbel feared that the names of the detectives will be with such a directory is known. "The work of the detectives could be with actions disturbed", says Humbel. Even if such a list would not be for anyone over the Internet, could be Insured or their lawyers request, with reference to the principle of Public inspection of the Register, says Humbel. In this way, the names of the detectives were still open to the public.

SP-national councillor Silvia Schenker, who do not understand the law to the social detectives fought, can the objections. Undisputed was also among the supporters that detectives needed an admission to the observation activity. It follows from this that approved insurance detectives would have to be recorded by the authorities. In the case of the Insured, the supporters of the Surveillance weighted the right to privacy is not as high as in the case of the detectives, writes Schenker.

Berset and Jürg Brechbühl, Director of the Federal office for social insurance (BSV), presented the regulation to the Observation of the Insured's next-to-last week in the national Council Commission. You responded to the concern that the detectives would have to leave your home address to register, but the business address may specify.

a matter of the Federal Council

another point of contention for the Qualification to be allowed to suspect the Insured observe. The regulation requires that detectives need to have a police training or equivalent observation training. The Federal Council stipulates that the qualification is both for external detectives, as well as for employees of social insurance necessary.

The majority of the Commission wants to work on the Qualification for external investigators, in the order of a social security. If employees of an insurance company already carried so far, observations by, you can also do this without proof of Qualification.

the design of The regulation lies in the competence of the Federal Council. The SVP accuses Berset, he can use this expertise to by the people approved the law "to mitigate the effect of weightlessness", and "to coddle social security fraudsters". So far Humbel don't want to go in their criticism. Joachim Eder, President of the Swiss Council of States Commission, the allegations of the SVP even unfounded.
