Programme for Government

Programme for Government

Social Justice Ireland  has issued an initial response to the New Programme for Government.

Social Justice Ireland initial comments on new Programme for Government March 2011

The response identified commitments to be welcomed and areas of concern.  Vague and insufficient information in costs and changes in policy which will move Ireland away from a ‘welfare state’ approach move towards a ‘regulatory state’ approach are noted and commented upon.

This initial response is a very useful and reader-friendly introduction on the plan which will impact on our issues in the years ahead.

The Programme itself is also available on www.socialjustice.ie
