I find this article somewhat incomprehensible in its shortness.

"that more than 20% of households are in arrears of at least one type." I had expected more?

"Households where the head of the house was unemployed had an increase of more than 25% in their average disposable income," I don't understand this.

"The average annual disposable income increased by 2.2% to €49,043." That seems quite a lot, but I'm never sure what "disposable income" actually means?

Was 2008, though.
