ITALY: Basic Income Network Italy members are called at the Italian Parliament
Founding members of BIN Italia attended the hearing of the Commission of Labour and Social Affairs of the Italian Parliament, on March 14, 2016.
The hearing had been requested to BIN Italy, regarding the examination of the draft 2016 Stability Law, which is about inequality, poverty, reorganization of social services and welfare system.
BIN Italia reminded the Commission of the importance of, and the reasons for, introducing a guaranteed income in Italy – one of the countries with the highest rate of risk of poverty and youth unemployment in Europe, and yet one that has not provided any universal income support scheme.
