“Any future support must pass the test of affordability and must not come at the expense of basic services or at the risk of unsustainable spending.

“Research shows that income support leads to better nutritional and educational outcomes, social cohesion, job-seeking behaviour, and stimulates local economies. “It encourages economic activity and helps to empower women who bear the burden of unpaid caregiving work and gender-based violence.
