CPB advocates of low-income subsidy – NU.nl

This enables the Director of the Central Planning Bureau (CPB), Laura Spirit Sunday in an explanation of a CPB report with recommendations for the labor market.

” Wage Subsidy to the bottom of the labor market works, ” Spirit Of said in the TV show Buitenhof . ” The difference between working and not working must pay. An employed person who focuses on small incomes could help in that respect and can provide more jobs. ”

” It remains a cliffhanger, ” she said of that ambition. ” It is very to the size of the tax plan and how sharp the choices. On the one hand you want

to make sure that as many people go to work, on the other hand, we find a small income inequality also important. ”
