Following the presentation of the new Sponsorship Plan for Existing Multi-Family Houses in Government Housing Estates for Displaced Persons, and after evaluating the input of stakeholders and the financial capabilities of the Ministry, it was decided that the amount of the subsidy to be granted to beneficiaries of the Plan who choose to be accommodated in a relative's home for the period specified in the Plan will be increased on a case-by-case basis and per category of beneficiaries. The amount is increased from €80 per person to €125 per person per month.
Recognising the difficulty of finding accommodation for temporary housing for beneficiaries, the aim of the increase in the subsidy is to encourage beneficiaries to take advantage of the option to stay with a relative, while ensuring that the subsidy covers their share of the costs of the household that will host them.
