When an early retirement scheme for workers in physically demanding occupations neared expiration and negotiations about its extension stalled, Stultiens and Bart van Kent (SP) filed an amendment to make the scheme permanent and to raise its maximum benefits. They planned to fund the expansion through canceling a planned broadening of the earnings stripping rule for large corporations.[3][4] Social affairs minister Eddy van Hijum subsequently said he believed the negotiations would lead to an agreement about the extension of the early retirement scheme.[5]
