Social Welfare and Pensions (No. 2) Bill 2009: Committee and Remaining Stages
2:00 pm
Róisín Shortall (Dublin North West, Labour)
This is not done some days or weeks after the budget. It is done when the budget is going to Cabinet. Along with the memoranda for Government, there is a requirement that a poverty proofing document be prepared on any proposal such that the Cabinet can assess the impact of such proposals on people living in poverty. Was that done or not?
