View answerThe Department of Social Protection has prepared a Statement of Strategy 2016-2019 which will be published when finalised. The draft Statement of Strategy takes account of the views submitted though the consultation process and is fully aligned with the commitments in the Programme for a Partnership Government and broader Government policy.
As in the previous Statement of Strategy 2015 - 2017, the new Strategy will continue to focus on putting clients, including those with disabilities, at the centre of services and policies.
