CORI Justice: No justification for reducing welfare
CORI Justice today called on the Government not to reduce social welfare in next week's Budget, saying that there is "no justification whatsoever" for the move.
More than half of all those at risk of poverty in Ireland today (55.9%) live in households headed by a person who is outside the labour force (i.e people who are older or ill, or have a serious disability or are in caring roles), the group pointed out.
