RECAP Write down a definition of the Welfare State.

What am I learning today? Challenges to the Welfare State. Changes in the Welfare State under the Conservatives in Changes to the Welfare State by the ‘New Labour’ Government of 1997.

Copy the Following… The Welfare State is… …a system where the government takes on the main responsibility for providing social and economic security for the population through pensions, social security benefits, free health care, and free education.

1.National Insurance- this is a deduction from all those who work. From an individual point of view, the government believed that nobody would object paying as they would have benefited from an early age. 2.Taxation-direct and indirect taxes. Where does the money come from for the NHS?

The Challenge to the Welfare State. High Unemployment Increase in Life Expectancy Changes in family life

NEW LABOUR AND THE WELFARE STATE ‘New Labour does not want to end the Welfare State but to modernise it’ ‘We will guarantee that people in need get decent support, but we expect that people who can, should help to provide for themselves. The best way out of poverty is work.’

WELFARE TO WORK End ‘dependency culture’ Get people out of the ‘poverty trap’ ‘Hand up not hand out’

POLICIES The New Deal: provide training schemes and jobs which provide wages that are higher than benefits. The National Minimum Wage: £6.19 an hour for workers aged 21 and over £4.98 an hour for workers aged 18 to 20 £3.68 an hour for workers aged 16 to 17
