Thank you, Mr. Speaker. My questions are for the Minister of Education, Culture and Employment (ECE):
What is current ECE policy regarding income support clients who fail to comply with ECE guidelines? Specifically, what is the policy around “cutting off” income support to clients as a way to enforce compliance?
In the last three years, how many income support clients have been cut off from income support, for how long and for what reasons?
In the last three years, how many income support clients who were cut off had children in their care?
In the last three years, how many single parents were cut off from income support for failing to take their ex-partner to court to seek child support payments?
For comparison, in the last three years, how many clients of income support have managed to rise far enough out of poverty that they no longer required income support for at least one year?
Mahsi.
Thank you, Mr. Bromley. Mr. Hawkins.
