Due to an amendment to § 19a DRiG , the judges have been using the official title "Judge at the Federal Social Court" and the presiding judges the official title "Presiding Judge at the Federal Social Court" since October 1st 1972.
The office of Vice President was established on February 1, 1976. Previously there was a "permanent representative of the President". The ownership of this office is also noted in the column “Vice-President from”.
