Benefits for children: a four-country study
Ken Battle, Jane Millar, Michael Mendelson, Daniel Meyer and Peter Whiteford
Due to be published in December 2000, this international study examines and compares how four countries - Australia, Canada, the UK and the US - administer benefits for children. Separate reports look in detail at each country.
These reports have been carefully designed, through extensive liaison among their authors co-ordinated by Michael Mendelson for the Caledon Institute, to report the complex system of each country in a common framework allowing for comparative analysis.
A separate study, Reforming children's benefits, looks particularly at the implications for current policy reform in the UK.
