<Measures against high prices ③>
We will also introduce our efforts from now on to the future.
This summer (July-September), we are providing "electricity and gas bill support" of approximately 5,000 yen for three months for standard households.
Based on the ``Amended Income Tax Law'' passed by the Diet until last month, an ``income tax reduction of 30,000 to 60,000 yen per taxpayer'' will be implemented in the year-end adjustment in December of this year.
Regarding ``pension'', the amount has been increased since June transfer of this year. Specifically, compared to last year, the National Pension (basic pension) has increased by 1.9%, and the Employees' Pension (remuneration-related portion) has increased by 2.0%. (Example) Old-age basic pension (full amount/monthly) 69,308 yen⇒70,608 yen (+1,300 yen) Employees' pension (standard pension amount/monthly amount including basic old age pension for two couples) 232,784 yen⇒237,279 yen (+4,495 yen)
In addition, as a thorough preparation for the future, we have compiled a supplementary budget for FY2020, which includes the creation of a reserve fund for dealing with the situation in the Middle East (2.5 trillion yen).As this has been approved by the Diet, we will continue to take necessary measures as the situation arises.
Notes
＜物価高対策③＞ 足元から今後に向けての取組も、紹介します。 この夏（7～9月）、標準的なご家庭では、3か月で5,000円程度の「電気・ガス料金支援」を実施しています。 先月までの国会で成立した『改正所得税法』などに基づき 、今年12月の年末調整では、「納税者1人あたり3～6万円の所得税減税」が実施されます。 「年金」については、今年6月振込分から、増額になっています。 具体的には、昨年度と比べて、国民年金（基礎年金）が1.9％の引上げ、厚生年金（報酬比例部分）が2.0％の引上げとなっています。 （例） 老齢基礎年金（満額・月額） 69,308円⇒70,608円（＋1,300円） 厚生年金（夫婦２人分の老齢基礎年金を含む標準的な年金額・月額） 232,784 円⇒237,279 円（＋4,495 円） また、今後の万全の備えとして、「中東情勢等対応予備費」（2.5兆円）の創設を含めた「令和8年度補正予算」の編成も行い、国会でお認め頂きましたので、今後も臨機応変に必要な対応を行ってまいります。
