NZIER Working paper, 2023/02

New Zealand's social assistance system does not meet the needs of people experiencing persistent disadvantage.

The government should introduce a deliberate strategy of using a people-centred, devolved approach to address persistent disadvantage.

Under a devolved system, power over what to do, when, how and even why rests with the people experiencing disadvantage and the organisations helping them build a better life.(From the website). Record #8523
