AnnotationThe report sets out the strategies for tackling social exclusion and poverty, but the emphasis is on the progress made in the last year since a variety of initiatives have been implemented. These include policy priorities and key initiatives for identified groups such as pensioners. Key initiatives for older people have been focused on combating pensioner poverty through pension credit, one-off age-related payments and winter fuel payments. Other strategies for older adults are reviewed: age discrimination, flexible retirement and the Link-Age initiative. (KJ/RH).
