The planned reduction of subsidies
for the care of the elderly, to take place later on this year, will hit Holocaust
survivors particularly hard. The idea
behind the cutbacks is that they will force family members to become more involved
and take greater responsibility. Many holocaust
survivors have no family members. An article
in the daily AD mentions that in the small Jewish old age home in the
Hague, there are only six such people.
