Italy's tax-to-GDP ratio is set to
fall by 0.4 of a percentage point this year with respect to 2021
thanks to measures adopted by the government, Premier Mario
Draghi said on Thursday.
He referred to income tax cuts, saying they helped the weakest
workers most of all, and the new 'assegno unico' (single cheque)
benefit for families with children up to 21 years of age.
"The government moved rapidly to protect workers with the many
crises of recent years," Draghi told the assembly of trade-union
confederation CISL.
"When fully up-and-running, these transfers are worth almost 14
billion euros a year and make our tax system more rational and
progressive".
