People with meritorious services and social protection beneficiaries to receive the welfare package by April 30

28/04/2020 02:05 PM

 

Mr. Nguyen Hong Dan, Deputy Director of Hanoi Department of Labour, War Invalids and Social Affairs, claimed that until now, the city had basically completed the review of beneficiary groups in the spirit of Resolution No. 42/NQ-CP dated April 9, 2020 by the Government on measures to support people facing difficulties due to the COVID-19 epidemic.

 

In particular, the two groups of subjects with accurate results obtained are people with meritorious services to the revolution and their relatives who are enjoying monthly preferential allowances; Social protection beneficiaries are receiving monthly preferential treatment.

In order for the support policy to early reach the beneficiaries, Hanoi Department of Labour, War Invalids and Social Affairs asks the Municipal People's Committee to allocate the budget resource so that the branches and localities can provide support for these two groups by April 30th.

Agreeing to this proposal, the Vice Chairman of the Municipal People's Committee Ngo Van Quy assigned the Department of Labour, War Invalids and Social Affairs, the Department of Finance and other related departments and sectors to urgently develop a draft decision and budget estimates to submit to the People's Committee for approval of decisions to support the groups of subjects early next week.
