§ 164. Coverage for dependents. 1. Each employee shall be entitled to have his spouse and dependent children, as defined by the regulations of the president, included in the coverage upon agreeing to pay his contribution, if any, to the cost of such coverage for such dependents. The president shall adopt regulations governing the discontinuance and resumption by employees of coverage for dependents. 2.
