Government passes new measures for socially vulnerable categories

The Government passed Monday a set of measures for assistance of socially vulnerable categories.

The first measure envisages free-of-charge reports for legalization of illegal buildings for welfare beneficiaries and individuals receiving low income.

The second measure aims at exempting all welfare beneficiaries from the broadcasting fee.

The Government also passed several measures towards improving the life of persons with disability or handicap.

"One of the measures is that all buildings, which will be constructed in the future, must include the aspect for free movement of persons with handicap", said Prime Minister Nikola Gruevski at today's press conference.

The measure also foresees horizontal and vertical signals in elevators for the blind.
