What is a Minimum Income Guarantee
Every day our network of Citizens Advice Bureaux help more and more people coming through their doors struggling to stretch their incomes to pay for essentials.
That’s why we’re calling for a Minimum Income Guarantee - a transformational idea centred on setting a minimum income level below which nobody in Scotland would not be allowed to fall.
The Minimum Income Guarantee can provide the solid foundation that we all need, no matter what life throws at us. Through a combination of fair paid work, high quality services, and better social security, all of us will have the right to a minimum standard of living. It's an investment in a better future where we all have the freedom to build a more secure life for ourselves and our households, and a better society for everyone.
