A response to Tax Credits: Improving Delivery and Choice.

May 2008

Section one: Introduction

One Parent Families|Gingerbread welcomes to the opportunity to comment on Tax Credits: Improving Delivery and Choice, and we welcome the Government's commitment to improving the tax credits system. Several of the reforms laid out in the discussion paper are both ambitious and long-term and they will have far reaching implications for lone parents.
Tax credits have played a key role in tackling child poverty and helping lone parents move into work. To extend this progress it is vital that the Government sustains and increases this high level of investment and tackles a number of pre-existing problems with the system - many of which are not fully resolved by the measures outlined in this discussion paper.
