Abstract
Description
Every day, CIB-supported delivery services - Citizens Information Services (CISs), Money Advice and Budgeting Services (MABS), the Citizens Information Phone Service (CIPS) and the National Advocacy Service (NAS) for people with disabilities - assist thousands of people to access their rights and entitlements. In line with our statutory role to highlight areas of concern for service users, we use the insights gained from these enquiries to illustrate the impact of government policy (and its implementation) on people who are trying to secure social and public services. This evidence offers an authoritative basis to inform Budget 2020 decisions across a range of areas such as social welfare, housing, health and social care services and responses to over-indebtedness and financial exclusion.
