SISAK, Aug 27 (Hina) - Croatian Labour and Welfare Minister Davorko Vidovic on Monday said new measures of the social policy primarily aim at reducing poverty in Croatia, adding the government wanted to intervene in the case of
socially most vulnerable categories. "We have introduced the new package of social measures because we want to draw up a code for all social rights and determine how the rights had been divided so far and how are they being accumulated," Vidovic told Hina.

aim at reducing poverty in Croatia, adding the government wanted to

"We have introduced the new package of social measures because we
want to draw up a code for all social rights and determine how the
rights had been divided so far and how are they being accumulated,"
Vidovic told Hina.
In the current situation, individuals can receive up to 15,000 or
20,000 kuna each month through various budget incomes, which is
unallowable, Vidovic said stressing that a more developed and
wealthier country than Croatia would not be able to handle it.
The new measures aim at providing support for those citizens who
live below the subsistence level, and denying the rights to those
who receive amounts several times bigger than an average pay
because those rights do not belong to those citizens according to
moral and international standards, Vidovic said.
