The Council of Ministers has adopted the new budget law, which will launch a package of initiatives targeted at assisting families and addressing the issues posed by the country's dropping birth rate. One of the most symbolic initiatives is the creation of a fund dedicated to infants, through which the state will establish a social security account with an initial payment of one hundred euros per year for each newborn until they reach adulthood. The government intends to promote the centrality of families and improve welfare tools by combining initiatives to increase birth rates with targeted tax and income support programs. The comprehensive budget package is part of a framework of resources that aims to protect purchasing power by carefully balancing the necessity for public finance stability with the responses to critical social and employment needs.
