The Cliff Edge Coalition has responded to the UK Government’s ‘Pathways to Work: Reforming Benefits and Support to Get Britain Working Green Paper’.
In this response, the Coalition highlights the disproportionate impact which the proposed policy measures outlined in the Green Paper will have upon individuals across Northern Ireland. You can now read the full response ‘here‘.
On 18th June 2025, the Coalition’s Working Group hosted an online event focused on this response, in which Coalition’s members delivered presentations and a question and answer session was facilitated. This event provided a critical space for organisations to share concerns, whilst outline ways in which we collectively can move forward in a constructive, collective manner together as we navigate the uncertainty of these proposals.

A special thanks to those who contributed to this response, attended this event, and endorsed the Coalition’s response.
