Question:
To ask the Minister for Communities what resources will be allocated by his Department to the development of the anti-poverty strategy.

Answer:

Addressing poverty in all its forms is a key priority for me and I am committed to delivering long-term, sustainable solutions to poverty for our communities right across Northern Ireland.

I am currently considering the next steps to be taken in relation to the Executive Anti-Poverty Strategy to ensure it takes account of the current delivery environment and Executive and Ministerial priorities.

Final decisions on the content and implementation of the Anti-Poverty Strategy will be subject to Executive agreement.
