Economic stability will always be our starting point. We will keep inflation low and mortgage rates as low as possible. To continue to advance towards our goal of full employment:
- In 2008, all new claimants for benefits on the basis of incapacity will be required to undergo a new tougher test of their ability to work, and new claimant lone parents will be required to seek work once their youngest child is 12.
- In 2009, 140,000 benefits claimants with incapacity will be helped into work, and new claimant lone parents will be required to seek work once their youngest child is 10.
- In 2010, new claimant lone parents will be required to seek work once their youngest child is 7. These new requirements will increase lone parent employment by at least 75,000.
