Hungarian pensioners will get an average premium of 20,160 forints (EUR 60) linked to economic growth and an 11,000 forint top-up pegged to the inflation rate this year, the prime minister told a meeting of the Council of the Elderly in Parliament. Pensioners will get the premium and the top-up in a single payment in November, Viktor Orbán said. He noted that pensioners were recently sent vouchers to pay utility bills as a form of support.
