It is recalled that “Save-Autonomous” will have a budget of 850 million .euro and will remain “open” until the resources available per region are exhausted. The program budget includes grant resources of €803 million (distributed by region according to the table below) and resources from the existing Fund of the Save at Home II program for loan servicing. As POMIDA has emphasized, this is a “drop in the ocean” in relation to the real needs, but also to the obligation that will gradually be imposed on the owners of all existing buildings to renovate them, whether they can or not, with tragic results in burden of society…
HELP DESK YΠEN. The special citizen service line (helpdesk) for the “Save-Self-Employment” program has already been opened, with the aim of better informing and preparing those interested. Those interested can contact the telephone number 210 6241829 (20 lines), which will operate every day – working days – from 07.00 in the morning to 21:00 at night.
