'The Poor Can't Pay' ask Taoiseach for immediate commitment that welfare will not be cut further and minimum income protected

'The Poor Can't Pay' called on the Taoiseach today (Monday 11th January, 2009) to give an immediate assurance that there would be no more cuts in social welfare payments and no cut in the minimum wage.

The call came as the campaign coalition launched a detailed analysis titled 'How the Poor Were Made to Pay', which outlines how the 2010 Budget will hit people living in poverty.
