‘It’s a game-changer for us’: Artists welcome guaranteed basic income plan
Pilot scheme could see 2,000 creative workers get €325 a week from March 2022
basic income guarantee was the top recommendation of the Arts and Culture Recovery Taskforce’s Life Worth Living report in November 2020, and the Minister said she intends to follow it “as closely as possible and to deliver a scheme that benefits artists and creative arts workers”. The three-year pilot will involve a weekly payment of €325 a week.”
