Question:

132 Mr. Eamon Ryan asked the Minister for Social and Family Affairs if he has received a report from the National Economic and Social Council which states that Government welfare policies have done little to address inequality here. [23414/04]

Written answers

Minister for Social and Family Affairs (Mr. Brennan)

I understand that the report in question is still in draft form and is not expected to be published until 2005. It would not be appropriate for me to comment on it until I have received the final report.
