Joint Committee on Social Protection, Rural and Community Development

Child Poverty: Discussion

2:00 am

Dr. Nat O'Connor:

However, the Deputy's point is important. Since it is a national survey, it does not take account of the smallest groups of people, such as people in homelessness, Travellers and Roma. There is a deeper poverty there that we have to get at in a different way, such as a different type of survey or qualitative method. That is certainly important.
