The Government may, by regulation, prescribe for recipients under the program the amounts of the adjustments for adults, which may vary according to the time elapsed since they became recipients under the program, and determine the cases in which and the conditions under which those amounts are to be granted.

(1)  ownership of property, liquid assets, amounts paid into a pension plan or assets received by succession;

(1.1)  income derived from assets received by succession;
