Text

Minister, you disengaged from the anti-poverty strategy co-design group, which was a mistake, because you might have had a much more worthwhile document had you engaged fully with that group. How will you engage with the expert groups during the consultation? For the consultation and strategy to work, you need to work with the people who know what they are talking about.
