The Second Deputy Lehendakari and Minister of Labor and Employment, Idoia Mendiapromised this Tuesday to update the amounts of the Income Guarantee Income (RGI) on January 1, 2023 to people who have recognized the right on this date if the law governing this system is passed before the end of 2022.
Mendia handed over this obligation to the parliamentary groups during his intervention in a committee of the Basque Chamber, in which he elaborated the details of the bill on the Basque system of income guarantee and inclusion, which was approved by the regional government last week.
This is a project that includes increasing the amount of the RGI and improving access conditions for the most vulnerable cohabitants, such as those with minors and pensioners among their participants.
The minister has shown willingness to cooperate with the Basque parliament and has insisted that the rule be approved before the end of this year.
“We do not intend to mark parliamentary times,” Mendia said, after recalling that the law would come into effect at least three months after receiving parliamentary approval, which is guaranteed with the support of the PNV and PSE-EE, although Deputy Lehendakari is confident he will gain the support of more groups.
In this sense, it has made a first commitment if the parties “can reach agreement before the end of the year”, so that the new amounts will apply from 1 January 2023 to people who have recognized this right by that date.
Mendia has maintained that this law is not merely a reform, but a “more modern” standard that “makes things easier for people in vulnerable situations” and allows for “better management of public funds”.
