The persons referred to in article L. 5421-4 under the age of sixty-five who can only receive a full old-age pension calculated on the basis of less than 150 quarters of contributions are entitled to a means-tested supplementary allowance paid by the State until the date on which they can have all the pensions to which they are entitled settled at the full rate, under conditions determined by decree by the Conseil d’Etat.
The period during which this supplementary allowance is paid is not taken into account for the purpose of acquiring pension rights.
