29 Conclusion Acknowledged
Cash transfers offer significant potential for tackling hunger, needing complementary strategies.
Conclusion
We can see the potential for much wider application of cash transfers as a tool to tackle hunger. However, we also appreciate they need to complement other components of a sustainable food system. (Conclusion, Paragraph 81)
Government Response Summary
The government partially agrees with the conclusion, recognising the important role of cash transfers in alleviating poverty and improving food security when integrated with wider policies. They will consider further action on this area as part of the ongoing Spending Review.
