The government has so far received
more applications for its basic income benefit from Naples than
from the whole of Lombardy, according to figures released
Monday.
Applications from Naples for the 'citizenship wage' have been
more than 78,000, compared to 71,310 from the whole of Lombardy,
the labour ministry said one month after applications were
opened.
In all, the applications from around Italy have been 806,000,
the ministry said.
Of these, some 32% have come from Campania, the region around
Naples, and from Sicily, the ministry said.
