Question 14180 — people with disabilities

Summary

Ms. Marietta Karamanli draws the attention of the Secretary of State to the Prime Minister, responsible for disabled people, to the subjection of the Disability Compensation Benefit (PCH) to social security contributions. A disabled person can use the disability compensation benefit to compensate a family caregiver who, in any event, cannot be employed. The amounts received are nevertheless taxable under non-commercial profits and subject to social security contributions. In fact, many family caregivers stop working to be able to care full-time for a seriously ill, dependent or disabled loved one. The reasons may be the inability to finance a care assistant or to find a qualified person. The drop in income they may experience if they worked before is only partially compensated via the PCH, itself subject to social security contributions. These are the family caregiver's only professional income. She asks him if there is a regulatory possibility that extra-legal aid from the community could compensate all or part of the charges thus paid by the caregiver when the amount received from the PCH is modest. She asks him if the available data allows us to know the amount median paid to family caregivers and whether consideration is underway to improve the amount, including partial and conditional exemption from social security contributions. Finally, she asks him what measures the Government is considering to improve a situation that many family caregivers consider to be constraining them and putting them in a precarious situation.
