The 200 euro bonus for just over half of the Italian population is coming in July.
A one-off subsidy - for those with incomes under 35 thousand euros - to cope with the increase in the prices of all goods , not just the cost of bills. The aid decree, launched by the Government on 3 May last, and then revised on 5 May precisely to widen the bonus audience and reach home helps, seasonal workers and citizenship income recipients, has now also received the go-ahead from the State Accounting Office .
The type of contribution that will be given to the self-employed and professionals has yet to be defined: a separate decree will be required, which will be finalized within 30 days by the Ministry of Labor.
The allowance will come directly into the July paychecks of 13.7 million employees and 13.7 million retirees . Others will have to apply to INPS : domestic workers (750 thousand), unemployed (1.1 million), co.co.co (270 thousand), seasonal, entertainment or intermittent workers (300 thousand), citizenship income earners (900 thousand) ). An ad hoc fund of 500 million is set up for self-employed workers to finance the one-off allowance . To help workers and students will also arrive the voucher for public transport , from 60 euros, which will be paid out electronically and will be usable until December.
To finance aid to families and businesses , the Government has raised the extraordinary contribution paid by producers, importers and retailers of electricity, gas and petroleum products , which now reaches 25% and will generate a revenue of 6, 5 billion euros. There will be a 40% deposit to be paid by June 30, 2002, and the balance by November 30, 2022.
