80-euro bonus didn't have desired effect

(ANSA) - Rome, September 16 - Premier Matteo Renzi on Tuesday admitted that the 80-euro-a-month tax bonus that his government introduced this year has not had the desired effect in terms of boosting in the economy. But he also stressed this was only the start of moves to have a fairer, less burdensome tax system. "The 80 euros have had the effect we hoped for," Renzi told the Lower House. "We could do more, we should do more, certainly. But we have made a start".
