There is a high interest in how the Corona 2nd Disaster Subsidy will be used, but the Democratic Party and the government gathered opinions to support communication expenses of 20,000 won to all citizens over the age of 13.

In addition, we are pushing ahead with measures to extend tax incentives for good renters who cut rents.

Support for communication expenses was directed toward lump sum payments rather than selective payments.



Initially, a plan to apply only to those aged 17 to 34 and over 50 years old was reviewed, but it was decided to only pay 20,000 won to all citizens over the age of 13 once.



At a conference held today (9th) at the Blue House, the Democratic Party announced that the proposal was made by Nak-yeon Lee and also agreed with President Moon Jae-in.



[In-ho Choi / Chief Speaker of the Democratic Party: Even if the amount is not large, it will be somewhat comforting to support communication expenses in the 4th supplementary bill to the people who are tired of corona...

.] In a



situation where non-face-to-face activities are greatly increased due to the corona, and communication costs are burdensome, it is expected that the same support for communication expenses can alleviate dissatisfaction with the secondary disaster subsidy selective payment.



An official at the Blue House said that he expects to have a positive effect in terms of social integration.



Support for communication expenses is discussed, such as subtracting 20,000 won from the billed amount for communication expenses, which will be decided in consultation with the government and communication companies.



We are also planning to extend the so-called'good renter tax benefit' that ended last June.



This is a system that deducts half of the reduced rent.



At the emergency economic meeting tomorrow, the party is planning to finalize the 4th supplementary budget for the 7 trillion won, which contains measures for public welfare.



At today's meeting, Representative Lee Nak-yeon asked President Moon to promote a talk with Kim Jong-in, chairman of the People's Strength Emergency Response Committee.
