In our Child Poverty Scrutiny Report 2021 - 22 we outline recommendations for how

@scotgov

can meet #childpoverty targets. These are our key recommendations. You will find the full and summary reports here: povertyinequality.scot/publication/po

Recommendations 1 and 2.

1. Focus on implementing at pace and scale over the period of the Delivery Plan, demonstrating this focus by ensuring detailed delivery plans and timetables are in place, published, and robustly scrutinised both inside and outside government.

2. Put in place a system to ensure that policies across government contribute towards reducing child poverty in a meaningful way and that this contribution can be clearly demonstrated to the Commission and others.

Recommendations 3 to 5.

3. Commit to publishing robust monitoring data and evidence about actions in the Delivery Plan, and about the impacts for the priority families in particular, and demonstrate a culture of continuous learning and improvement where evidence is used to adapt and improve action.

4. Publish details of how experts by experience have contributed to the design, delivery and evaluation of actions in the Delivery Plan.

5. Engage closely with the Commission from now onwards to develop further action now to meet the 2030 targets, focusing particularly on shaping the economy, housing and transport.

Recommendations 6 to 8.

6. Take specific and urgent action to mitigate the cost of living crisis.

7. Ensure that its assessment of what further action is needed to mitigate the impact of the crisis is informed by data and analysis for all four child poverty target measures and other relevant indicators that are sensitive to the impact of the crisis, and commit to publishing these assessments.

8. Advocate at UK level for urgent, progressive revenue-raising measures in order to fund greatly enhanced social protection measures in response to the cost of living crisis.

Important read on #childpoverty: “Given the weight of the evidence...ending child poverty in America is no longer an impossible dream. It is a realistic objective that all of us who care about America’s future can be working toward every day.”

Ending Child Poverty in America: An Impossible Dream?

For several months in 2021, it was possible to believe that this nation had figured out the solution to child poverty and the many ills…
