Étant donné le versement de rentes aux personnes au foyer, le Groupe de travail recommande que les prestations de survivant servies aux personnes de plus de 65 ans soient égales à 30% de la rente de retraite du conjoint décédé, après partage des crédits, au lieu de 60% comme le recommande le Livre vert. Des prestations proportionnelles, basées sur la rémunération pendant le mariage, seraient versées aux conjoints divorcés. 2, record 1, French, - conjoint%20divorc%C3%A9
