Plan to raise holiday allowance: AK Party Group will submit proposal to Parliament

Background Holiday allowances for retirees began in 2018.
In 2024 the allowance was set at 3,000 lira, and in 2025 it was increased by 33% to 4,000 lira.
Parliament Submission The AK Party Group plans to submit a proposal to Parliament next week that adds a measure to raise the holiday allowance for retirees to the fiscal package.
If the work is not completed, the measure may be added during committee discussions.
Scenarios and Impact Analysis Scenarios have been prepared for increasing the allowance to 5,000, 5,500, and 6,000 lira, affecting 17,783 retirees.
The analysis aims to determine the amount to be given to those in need.
Future Steps After preparations are completed, the work will be presented to President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan.
Once the decision to increase the allowance is made, the measure will be added to the fiscal package law that includes provisions on earthquake housing.
The proposal is expected to be accepted before the holiday.
