Answer

The Anti-Poverty Strategy is still in development and final decisions on its content will be a matter for the Executive.

Work undertaken by the Co-Design Group under the previous mandate has provided a strong basis for taking this work forward. The final content of the Strategy will be based on and draw from a broad range of resources including inputs from the Anti-Poverty Strategy Expert Advisory Panel and Co-design Group alongside other research.
