Payments to Ukrainian refugees will be reduced in Ireland

Ireland decides to cut social benefits for Ukrainian refugees who have recently arrived in the country. According to independent.ie, this measure is aimed at reducing the flow of people due to the housing situation.

Under the new rules, new arrivals will receive an allowance of €38.80 a week, significantly less than the current rate of €232 a week. It is noted that the changes will not apply to those Ukrainians who have arrived in Ireland so far (more than 100,000 people).

Additionally, Ireland plans to provide Ukrainian refugees with educational opportunities and skills development support to help them successfully integrate into the labor market through local Intreo offices.

The Irish government says the new, reduced social security rates will bring the country in line with support programs in other European countries.

Despite the reduction in benefits, Ukrainian refugees who have arrived in Ireland will be given 90 days of free accommodation in public housing, after which they will be required to find a place to live on their own.

It should be noted that since the beginning of the war in Ukraine, more than 102,000 Ukrainians have arrived in Ireland, and the new measures may affect the conditions of their stay in the country.
