AnnotationSince 1997, the government has pursued a number of inter-related policies aimed at reforming the welfare system for people of working age, getting more people into work and reducing poverty. Research by the Joseph Rowntree Foundation (JRF) had identified many of the needs of targeted groups, and the Foundation has been involved in commenting on reform plans and tracking progress. This Foundations is a round-up of what JRF has had to say about welfare reform and related issues since the late 1990s, and provides an assessment of the progress made. (KJ/RH).
