• Policy PSOE Joins Podemos And Increases Social Security Contribution Without Limit But Says That “Accidentally”

profit A 445,000 pensioncharacterize cosmic and the monthly cost of €30 million, It is the agreement that the Minister of Social Security, Jose Luis Escrive, has reached with Buildu to increase the non-contributory pension to 15%, and which is part of the new decree that the government must approve to expand the planned measures. To deal with the economic consequences of the war in Ukraine.

Non-contributory pensions envisaged by Social Security for those citizens over the age of 65 for disability and retirement”in case of need” Although they have not contributed or made insufficiently. In the first case, the average pension is 461.69 euros and in the second, 427.56 euros per salary.

The monthly payroll for these 445,000 beneficiaries of these benefits is close to €200 million, making the budgetary cost of the measure €30 million per month. The government only considers a new decree that runs until the end of September, with a budgetary cost of 90 million euros.

Escrive’s Confidence

Escrive himself kept his blood cold after This Friday yesterday there was chaos In the Labor Commission that processed the Pension Schemes Act, a process that ended with the approval of several amendments that contradicted the reforms he himself proposed.

they are modifications Stop for prices and deductions deduction In personal income tax for contributions to pension plans. If approved under these conditions, the Minister of Social Security will see as one of the axes of system reform, promotion of complementary schemes for public pensions, it will lose much of its interest to those companies and workers, who should contribute. Extraordinary, as individual plans have already lost fiscal attractiveness. Withholding maximum contribution bases is prescribed but not under the current circumstances.

Escrive recalled that “do not agree” The abolition of incentives or the abolition of the top of the maximum bases. In his opinion, they are “premature” measures and “they have been talked about and talked about a lot”, although he defended that “it is legitimate” for a parliamentary group to propose its amendments for. However, he insisted that “it was not in those agreements”, which was “clear on both sides”.

In this way, a parliamentary process that kicked off an amendment to the Pension Scheme Act on March 30, would come alive and wait for the change to last until the last moment, i.e. Thursday of next week, June 9. PSOE, which accepted the amendments by mistake, register a special vote canceling them To approve the criteria under conditions that the government itself had negotiated.

It is to be hoped that the executive’s partners respect the agreements made with Escriv and its team. Otherwise, the first outcome that would be the approval of the law is that the construction pension plan regulation is pending and has a capacity of 1.7 million participants. Will collapse due to lack of interest from companies,
