Kuwait Court of Cassation principle number 562

Retention of the benefit of an employee in government entities continuing to receive a child allowance exceeding the maximum limit after the enactment of Law No. 19 of 2000 requires that the employee have been in the service of the government entity on 10/5/2000, and that the children have been born before the aforementioned date and the allowance have actually been paid for them. If either condition is absent, the employee may not invoke an acquired right to retain the amount exceeding the maximum allowance if appointed to the government entity after 10/5/2000. Example.
