The value of the guaranteed minimum income is used in establishing benefits and is subject to indexation each year on April 1. The indexation rate is calculated based on the rate of inflation at the end of the previous year.
It is estimated that the number of social aid beneficiaries as of April 1 will constitute 52,000 households, and the number of beneficiaries of cold season benefits will constitute 214,000 households.
