“We are today at the Deaf National Foundation for two reasons: the first is to congratulate the administration and the workers for the very great work that is being done, especially on the issues of early diagnosis and timely intervention of children who face important hearing issues so that they will be fulfilled.” Kyriakos Mitsotakis During his visit to the Deaf National Foundation.

He added that “the second reason is to announce that we are correcting a timeless injustice to the detriment of our deaf fellow citizens, as the deafness allowance was given to children from 0-18 years and then retired to retirees over 65. So we are here today to announce that this is. All deaf will now receive the allowance of 391 euros regardless of their age. In this way we aim to adopt policies that are truly fair, fully included and to deal with any form of disability separately and distinctly recognizing its own peculiarities. “

The prime minister pointed out that after Easter we will be able to make some other announcements on how our deaf fellow citizens hire information through public television, with subtitling actions, so that every day we spend a step towards a more fair society, more fair, as children of a lower god. “

He said that “all these interventions can be implemented precisely because our economy and public finances are doing better and we have the fiscal space so that we can correct such timeless injustices, such as the one we are pleased to announce today.”
