The PAP provides a stipend of $500 per month to households where the collective income total is $3,000 or below. It was launched successfully during a grand public ceremony at Independence Square on December 24, 2018.
At last evening’s (April 07, 2020) Leadership Matters Virtual Town Hall Meeting, Prime Minister Dr. the Honourable Timothy Harris stated that if persons are not already on the PAP, they can “make an application and there will be a determination of their case.”
Individuals wishing to sign-up for the programme can email: statistics@gov.kn or visit the website www.stats.gov.kn.
