New VET abolishes age limits; Who gets it?
A new single financial aid programme for deaf and deaf people entered into force after the publication of the relevant Joint Ministerial Decision in the FVO. Beneficiaries are people with a disability rate of 67% or more, regardless of age, with permanent and legal residence in Greece. The application is submitted through OPECA, while the beneficiaries continue to receive the benefit without a new application. The new regulation replaces earlier schemes since 1973, at an estimated cost of EUR 5.5 million for the state budget.
