Regarding the benefits to be paid to low-income child-rearing households as a countermeasure against the new coronavirus, the Minister in charge of digital reform, Hirai, will not have to apply if the bill related to digital reform, which is being deliberated in the Diet, is passed and passed. Also indicated the prospect that benefits will be possible using My Number.
In order to support people who are having difficulty living due to the effects of the new coronavirus, the government will provide a new benefit of 50,000 yen per child to child-rearing households with parents who are exempt from residence tax. We have decided that the payment will start in some local governments as early as June.
Regarding this, Minister Hirai, who is in charge of digital reform, will use My Number to provide benefits if the bill related to digital reform, which is being deliberated in the Diet, is passed and passed at a press conference after the Cabinet meeting. He showed the prospect that it would be possible.
Minister Hirai said that he could not promptly meet the needs of the people at the time of the uniform payment of 100,000 yen in cash last year. I can do what I didn't have. I think it's a symbolic story of a social upgrade. "
