Social services – Poverty and Inequality Commission
The proposal would establish a Poverty and Inequality Commission (the Commission) to eradicate poverty by creating a legislated body with paid Commissioners and a President, modelled on the Productivity Commission. Legislation will require the Government to act on recommendations by mandating public responses to advice.
The Commission would conduct regular antipoverty reviews and create a national poverty line to measure and track progress. This will include reviewing social security payment rates and recommending minimum levels of support.
