Observations Until December 2016, the number of active pensions (pensions in payment) under Social Security was counted, including the General Scheme, the Non-Contributory and Equivalent Scheme and the Special Social Security Scheme for Agricultural Activities. All Social Security pensions are taken into account, regardless of whether or not they contain a component from another social protection organisation (e.g. Civil Service Retirement System), or Social Security supplements paid into Civil Service Retirement System pensions.
