Support for payment of electricity and gas utilities: green light from the Council

Benevento

The municipal council, on the proposal of the mayor Clemente Mastella and the councilor for social policies Carmen Coppola, this morning approved an extraordinary and one-off measure to support families for the payment of electricity and gas utilities.
Residents in the Municipality of Benevento for at least 12 months and having an ordinary ISEE or a valid ISEE with values ​​equal to or not exceeding 12,000.00 euros will be able to access the measure. Furthermore, they must be the holders of the electricity/gas utilities relating to the home for which they are requesting a contribution and must not have benefited from the automatic government bonus on their bill starting from 1 January 2024, nor be beneficiaries of income from inclusion for an amount equal to or greater than 400.00 euros.

The social vouchers will be assigned following approval of the final ranking and will be credited to the beneficiaries’ postal or bank accounts. The public notice containing the methods for submitting requests will be published in the next few days on the Municipality’s website.

“The measure – explain the mayor Clemente Mastella and the councilor Carmen Coppola – is intended to support the weakest sections of the population, and consequently most exposed to the effects of the ongoing economic crisis due to the general increase in prices. This last aspect has always been close to the heart of our Administration, as demonstrated by the various measures adopted so far to support families going through moments of economic difficulty”.

Finally, Councilor Coppola expressed heartfelt thanks to the members of the Council Commission chaired by Rosario Guerra for the precious preparatory work carried out.
