With recognition as a victim, the recovery operation should get off the ground, but that is more complicated, says a spokesperson for the Ministry of Finance and Benefits. When plans were drawn up for the compensation, it was thought that 10 to 20,000 people would sign up. That turned out to be an underestimate: 68,000 people registered as victims. About half of those people have been recognized as victims of the benefits affair. “Those victims will first receive the 30,000 euros. In addition, help will be provided with their debts and you can contact the municipality for support with work and housing,” said the spokesperson.
