NIAPN presented with @EqualityCoal to the Communities Committee on the legal duty to enact an anti poverty strategy. The work has been done. The evidence base is there. We need action now and budgetary allocation to make it a reality. youtube.com/live/P2Zr5xFk3…

Excellent summary of @EqualityCoal seminar on progressing an anti-poverty strategy for Northern Ireland. With one in five living in poverty and with clear associations with poor health, we need urgent action on poverty and growing health inequalities. caj.org.uk/publications/r…

Supporting @EqualityCoal colleagues at Stormont this morning in reinforcing the repeated and ever more urgent call for an #NIAntiPovertyStrategy. Clear frustration at the lack of progress, absence of urgency and real hardship being visited upon already vulnerable people.

How can it be that the #NIAntiPovertyStrategy is “months away” as stated in @NIA_Communities when @CommunitiesNI said that a draft Strategy was ready to go to @niexecutive Ministers and out for consultation - Daniel Holder @EqualityCoal

Spoke at @EqualityCoal anti-Poverty event today. Stormont has forced many into a life of poverty with cuts and cruel measures like welfare reform. I made the call for: ✅Pay increase for workers ✅Scrap welfare reform ✅Public homes ✅Rent & price controls ✅Tax the rich

We've been joined by DfE Minister @conormurphysf. He sets out the actions @Economy_NI will take on poverty in NI. He concludes: "Thanks for producing this useful report. I hope you will take some reassurance that your policy reccommendations will be taken forward by DfE."

Trása Canavan of @BarnardosNI expresses disappointment and concern that no one outside of DfC has had sight of the draft strategy yet. "I don't want to be back here, asking again where the anti-poverty strategy is five months from now, let alone five years from now."

We are hearing from Becca Bor from @NIAntiPov, who argues that the need for the strategy is urgent, despite the DfC Permanenet Secretary saying last week that the strategy was still 'some months' away. "We cannot wait any longer for an anti-poverty strategy."

We join the @EqualityCoal in urging local councils to pass motions in urgent support of an Anti Poverty Strategy that is based on objective need and aims to eradicate poverty. Councils must highlight poverty in their areas and amplify the voice of those in poverty. No more delays
