Decree providing assistance to those affected
The Government, in addition to the declaration of a catastrophic zone, will approve a decree providing for urgent measures for people affected by the storm, in which several ministries participated. A decree very similar to the one approved at the time for the island of La Palma after the volcanic eruption, which includes fiscal measures such as postponement of the second payment of personal income tax and direct assistance in the event of loss of housing or repair of damage.
Likewise, it also includes work measures. In this sense, the Temporary Work Regulation Files refer (ERTÉ) to protect employment. A “social and economic shield” to mitigate the effects of DANA, according to Moncloa.
