Will the Minister provide an annual breakdown of the number of pensioners in poverty in Wales?
Answered by Minister for Social Justice | Answered on 10/02/2023
Relative income poverty data for the number of people living in poverty in Wales is available on the Stats Wales website. The data is broken down using a range of criteria – for example, age, employment type, disability, ethnic group, housing tenure. Data is available for both the number and % of people in households in pensioner poverty, by adjusting the measure selected.
