Italy's new 'inclusion wage'
anti-poverty benefit will be given to 650,000 households in the
second half of 2018, rising from 490,000 at the start of
January, the government said Tuesday. It said it would also
raise benefits for large families in economic difficulties,
earmarking 300 million more next year on top of 1.7 billion
already set aside. That will enable a 50-euro monthly hike for
families with more than five members. The annual benefit will
thus go up from 480-490 euros to 530-540 euros.
