Abstract

This report monitors the evolution of poverty in Ireland from 2004 to 2007. This period marks the end of the first ten year National Anti‐Poverty Strategy (NAPS) in Ireland which ran from 1997 to 2007, and marks the beginning of the National Action Plan for Social Inclusion 2007 to 2016. The results therefore provide an important benchmark for the new programme as well as providing an insight into the changes in the level and distribution of poverty that occurred during the final stages of the NAPS.
