CPAG In Scotland announce details of annual conference and exhibition
The pace of change in social security is unrelenting as universal credit rolls out, new powers are devolved to Scotland, wider UK welfare ‘reforms’ continue to impact on families and the Scottish Welfare Fund gains a statutory underpinning.
The event will explore how rights to social security can support children’s rights to achieve the goal of ending child poverty.
As the newly elected Scottish Parliament considers how to use its new social security powers, the conference will also hear a range of perspectives on how ‘dignity’ can be built into the social security system at Scottish and UK level.
eight expert workshops WILL TAKE PLACE:
- Genuine Prospect of Work
- Universal credit and housing
- Scottish Welfare Fund – better than before?
- Universal credit – what’s new
- Personal independence payment – three years on
- Universal credit full service
- Welfare reform – softening the blow
- Vulnerable witnesses – handling and assessing their evidence
