Livre, PCP, and BE move to have the Single Social Benefit (PSU) reviewed in Parliament
Opposition parties (Livre, PCP, and BE) have requested a parliamentary review of the newly implemented Single Social Benefit (PSU). They argue the current rules—which include mandatory social work requirements and potential benefit cuts for specific recipients like the unemployed and widows—contradict government promises that no one would be left worse off.
Why it mattersWhile the benefit is currently in effect, this parliamentary review means that the rules regarding eligibility, benefit values, and mandatory work requirements may be changed or repealed in the near future; keep an eye on these potential adjustments if you are a recipient.
