The Government must desist from its plans to cut back on the vital services provided by Home Help carers.
These carers provide services to the poorest and most vulnerable people in society who are the most affected by the drastic cuts in Home Help hours.
Money must be found elsewhere to meet budget targets rather than from those who depend on the home help services.
The policy of cutting resources for the poor and vulnerable while sparing the rich from contributing to economic recovery through a progressive taxation of wealth is no longer viable.
