AnnotationIn the last 20 years, poverty has become more concentrated in individual neighbourhoods and estates, and their social exclusion has become more marked. This report is a follow-up to the 1998 report from the Social Exclusion Unit (SEU) on deprived neighbourhoods, 'Bringing Britain together: a national strategy for neighbourhood renewal'. 18 cross-cutting Policy Action Teams (PATs) are proposed, each comprising outside experts and people working in deprived areas (as well as government officials), to ensure that recommendations are evidence-based and reality tested; particular consideration is being given to ethnic minority populations (but no reference made to older people). 30 "key ideas" are outlined, subsumed in the following four principles: reviving local economies; reviving communities; decent services; and leadership and joint working. The closing date for responses to the consultation is 30 June 2000. (RH).
