Committee on Children and Equality
Child Poverty and Deprivation: Discussion
2:00 am
Ms Susanne Rogers:
From the outside it looks like a bad choice. It looks like "Why would you do that? I would never do that. Of course I would not. I do not need to do that." It is about all those supports. Even when you are talking about trying to get people to work in these areas and access to social workers and getting people to work in early years, it is housing, housing, housing. How can you work, how can you go to college for three or four years, come out of it and then end up in a job that means you have to share with six other adults in a suburban house somewhere? All of that will impact all of this.
