| Annotation | The Social Exclusion Task Force is based in the Cabinet Office, and works across government departments to ensure that the opportunities enjoyed by the vast majority of people in the UK today are extended to those whose lives have been characterised by deprivation and exclusion. The Task Force recognises that much has already been achieved through investment in public services, tax and benefit changes, and the national minimum wage. However, intensive collaborative support is needed for the most vulnerable individuals and families whose difficulties are complex and persistent. The Director of the Task Force comments on how development of the first public service agreement (PSA) to very vulnerable adults is a major step forward in tackling the needs of some of our most disadvantaged citizens.
