The Rdc becomes an active inclusion measure: this is how the government wants to change the subsidies

From basic income to Mia (active inclusion measure). According to Corriere della Sera, the government, through the Ministry of Labour, has sent the Treasury the drafts containing the draft reform of the RDC, which the executive would like to modify in all respects. The beneficiaries of the measure would be divided into two categories: families without employable people – that is, with at least one minor or an elderly person over 60 or a disabled person inside it – e families with employable. If for the former the subsidies will reach a limit of 500 Eurosfor families with employable people the maximum ceiling will be 375 euros. Furthermore, a tightening is also envisaged on the ISEE parameters on the basis of which a family can apply for subsidies: from the current limit of 9360 euros, the income requirement will drop to 7,200 euros. However, a more generous equivalency scale will be included to help larger households.

On the possibility of working while receiving subsidies, the government is reportedly thinking of further widening the mesh. After the rule introduced with the latest budget law – which allows income holders to combine the allowance with earnings from seasonal or intermittent work of up to 3,000 euros a year – now there is an extension to all types of employment. If you exceed 3,000 euros per year, your Mine will be frozen for the duration of the contract (but will start again when it expires). In general, they will be controls have been strengthened to try to curb those who work illegally and receive checks at the same time.

Finally, the government would put on the table the possibility of one progressive reduction of subsidies (the so-called decalage): however, it seems that this rule has not been included in the drafts received by the Treasury and is currently only a hypothesis under evaluation. The intervention would be as follows: families could benefit from allowances for a maximum duration of one year in the case of families with employable people and 18 months (like the Rdc) for families without employable people. After the first phase of 12 or 18 months, Mine can be requested again but a renewal of the same duration would not be obtained as was the case up to now. The renewal would in fact be granted but with one six month reduction: therefore another year for the unemployable and another six months for the employable. After which the unemployable could submit a new application only after a break of a year and a half.

The process should include, within a few weeks, the arrival in the Council of Ministers with a law decree presented by the Minister of Labour, Elvira Calderone. The government’s goal is to trigger the measure already this year, after the seven-month extension granted to the beneficiaries of the RDC with the latest budget law. Therefore, Mine should be able to ask realistically from 1st Septemberbarring any slowdowns that would cause it to be postponed by a few weeks.

The words of the president of INPS

Pasquale Tridico, president of INPS, who spoke this morning on Radio 24, commented on the reform project, emphasizing that “it wouldn’t change much for the unemployable”. “The minimum income is a measure envisaged by the directives of the European Commission”, recalled Tridico, thus defining “a great criticality is that even those who cannot find work lose their income“.
