The Federal Government will follow a precedent from New Zealand in a bid to break what it deems the cycle of welfare dependency in Australia. The Social Services Minister has announced a package of almost $100 million to allow groups to apply for and use the funds to develop programs for getting people off welfare. A new report by PricewaterhouseCoopers has found young carers, young parents and some students are most at risk of getting caught in a lifetime of welfare.
