Answer

The draft Anti-poverty Strategy is currently undergoing public consultation until 19 September ahead of final Executive Agreement and publication.

The final Strategy will include an action plan which will have clear delivery milestones and targets on putting actions in place to ensure that the Executive is delivering. The Monitoring, Reporting and Governance section of the draft Anti-poverty Strategy contains details on a proposed suite of measures and monitoring structures designed to track progress of the actions to tackle poverty.
