Het niet-indexeren van het basiskinderbijslagbedrag en het extra bedrag van de kinderbijslag in de Algemene Kinderbijslagwet over de jaren 2022, 2023 en deels over 2024
This Dutch national bill, handled by the Tweede Kamer (House of Representatives), concerns the decision not to adjust the basic child benefit amount and the supplementary child benefit amount under the General Child Benefit Act for the years 2022, 2023 and partly 2024. Normally these amounts are indexed to keep pace with price and wage developments. Based on its title alone, the bill would suspend that annual adjustment for a set period. The change would affect families in the Netherlands who receive child benefit, since their monthly payments would stay at existing levels rather than rising with indexation. The bill's full text should be consulted for exact amounts, eligibility rules and any transitional provisions. This summary is based on metadata only.
