Accordingly, existing CSS should be divided into: Core and Optional schemes.In the Core Schemes, those for social protection and social inclusion should form the Core of the Core and be the first charge on available funds for the National Development Agenda. Investment levels in Core Schemes should be maintained so as to ensure that the optimum size of the programme does not shrink.
