The VPSJ is very aware of the financial crisis and the challenges facing the Minister in the development of Budget 2014. Our research shows that many households in receipt of social welfare cannot afford a minimum essential standard of living. This Pre Budget Submission is presented with knowledge of the severe financial constraints under which Government decision makers operate. It is also made with the direct experience of the hardship of a growing number of low income families who cannot make ends meet.
