Reproduction for own or internal use is permitted. In 2005 just over 20 of those aged 65 and over were at risk of poverty, representing a significant decline on the 27 recorded one year previously. Over the same period the rates for persons under 65 remained relatively unchanged. At an overall level 18.5 of the population were at risk of poverty, compared with 19.4 in See tables 1, 3 & graph opposite. The percentage of the population living in households that experienced some element of enforced deprivation, according to the eight basic deprivation indicators used in the survey, increased from 18.3 in 2004 to 19.2 in Those living in lone parent households had the highest deprivation levels in 2005, as in 2004, with almost 60 reporting deprivation in respect of at least one of the eight deprivation indicators. See table 6a & background notes. When the risk of poverty is combined with enforced deprivation the results show that the levels of consistent poverty remained relatively unchanged over the period, with rates of 6.8 and 7.0 in 2004 and 2005 respectively. See table 7 & background notes. The average gross household income in 2005 was just over 51,000 per annum or per week, an increase of 3.6 on The average net disposable income was per week, an increase of 4.8. After adjusting for household size and composition, the average equivalised disposable income across all individuals increased by 5.3 from just under 360 to almost 380 per week. See annex.

2 The at risk of poverty threshold, set at 60 of median equivalised income, was just over 10,000 per annum or almost 193 per week in 2005, an increase of 3.9 from In practice this means that persons living alone with a net disposable income of less than 193 per week were considered to be at risk of poverty, while the threshold for households consisting of two adults and two children was See annex. At-risk-of-poverty-rates (60 threshold) classified by age group, EU SILC Age group Income excluding all social transfers (60 threshold) Income including old-age and survivors' benefits but excluding all other social transfers (60 threshold) Income including all social transfers (60 threshold) Social transfers reduce poverty rate by more than half If no account was taken of social transfers (such as unemployment benefits, child benefit and pensions) the risk of poverty would have been much higher at around 40 in both 2004 and The impact of their inclusion was to more than halve the risk in both years through a reduction of almost 22 percentage points in 2005 and 20.4 percentage points in See table 3. Social transfers play a particularly important role in reducing the risk of poverty for those aged 65 and over. The inclusion of pensions and survivors benefits reduced their risk of poverty from over 88 to just under 40 in 2005, while the inclusion of other social transfers brought the rate down by a further 20 percentage points to See table 3 & graph opposite. The impact of social transfers on those under the age of 65 was less pronounced. The at risk of poverty rate for children was reduced by 19 percentage points from 40 to 21.2, while for persons aged the rate fell by almost 15 percentage points from 32.3 to See table 3. No significant difference between male and female risk of poverty rates While females were found to have a higher risk of poverty than males in 2004, there was little or no observable difference in The rate for females dropped by 2.3 percentage points to 18.5 while the rate for males remained relatively unchanged over the year at The most significant decrease for females was among the elderly, where the poverty risk dropped from 28.2 in 2004 to 19.9 in See table 3. While the risk of poverty for males remained relatively static over the year there were some changes within the various age groups. The at risk of poverty rate for males aged 65 and over fell from 25.8 in 2004 to 20.3 in The rate for those aged showed a slight increase from 16.4 to 17.0 with a more significant increase evident for those aged under 15 where the risk of poverty increased from 19.5 to See table 3. Percentage of persons at-risk-of-poverty classified by Principal Economic Status, EU-SILC 2004 and Significant decrease in poverty rates for lone parent households The at risk of poverty rate for persons living in lone parent households declined from 48.3 in 2004 to 40.7 in However, they were still a particularly high-risk group. Decreases in the risk of poverty rate were also evident among the 1 adult, no children households, a grouping predominantly composed of the elderly, where risk of poverty decreased from 35.7 in 2004 to 28.8 in See table 4. Other high-risk groups were the unemployed and the ill or disabled. Though the at risk of poverty rates for the ill or disabled have decreased consistently over the past 2 years, from 51.7 in 2003 to 40.6 in 2005, the unemployed have only shown a very slight reduction from 41.5 to See table 4 & graph opposite. At work Unemployed Student Home duties Retired Ill/disabled In 2005, almost 30 of adults who had no more than a primary level education were at risk of poverty. The risk was halved to 14.8 for persons with a higher secondary education, while just under 4 of persons with a third level degree or above were considered to be at risk. See table
3 Non-Irish nationals had a much higher risk of poverty than Irish nationals. In 2005 almost 27 of non-irish nationals were at risk of poverty, compared with 18 for Irish nationals. See table 4. Debt problems high among households with children Percentage of persons that experienced deprivation classified by household composition, EU-SILC 2004 and adult, no children 2 adults, no children 3 or more adults, no children 1 adult with children 2 adults with 1-3 children Other households with children Total In 2005, one in ten persons were in households that reported experiencing debt problems arising from ordinary living expenses. This has been consistently the most common type of deprivation reported since 2003 and is particularly prevalent among households with children. In 2005, almost 40 of persons in lone parent households reported having debt problems, along with 15.3 of persons in other households with children and 10.2 of households with 2 adults and 1-3 children. Among households without children, the proportions ranged from 4.5 for 2 adult households to 6.3 for households with 3 or more adults. See table 5a. Almost 7 of persons were in households that reported being unable to afford new (rather than second-hand) clothes and 6.5 went without heating at some stage in the past year due to lack of money. See table 5a. Almost 20 of all persons reported experiencing difficulties in respect of at least one of the eight basic deprivation indicators in Persons living in lone parent households were most likely to experience more than one form of deprivation with almost 40 reporting difficulties in respect of two or more of the indicators. This compares with less than 5 for persons living in households with 3 or more adults and no children. In general, deprivation levels were higher among households with children compared to those without children. See table 6a & graph opposite. Consistent poverty higher among females than males In 2005, 7.5 of females were in consistent poverty, compared to 6.4 of males. A similar gender differential was evident in 2004, with rates of 7.4 and 6.2 respectively. In terms of age, children aged 0-14 had a much higher consistent poverty rate than persons aged (10.2 compared with 6.5) in 2005, while the consistent poverty rate for the elderly was significantly lower than both at 3.7. See table 7. Members of lone parent households were again the most significantly at risk group, with over 27 in consistent poverty. Over 21 of persons living in rented or rent-free accommodation were in consistent poverty, as were almost 22 of the unemployed. Other high-risk groups were the ill or disabled (17.4), non-irish nationals (13.1), children under 16 years of age (10.6) and adults with no more than primary level education (10.1). See table 7. Composition of population in consistent poverty classified by household composition, EU SILC 2005 Other households with children adults with 1-3 children adult, no children adult with children adults, no children ormoreadults, no children 12.1 Over one third of persons in consistent poverty are children While children under 16 years of age account for just 22.5 of the overall population they represent almost 27 of those at risk of poverty and a significantly higher 34.3 of persons in consistent poverty. In contrast, persons aged 65 and over accounted for over 11 of the population but less than 6 of those in consistent poverty. See table 8. Over half of persons at risk of poverty and almost two-thirds of persons in consistent poverty lived in households with children. Members of lone parent households made up almost 15 of persons in consistent poverty, despite representing less than 4 of the population. See table 8 & graph opposite. Persons living in rented or rent free accommodation made up over 43 of persons at risk of poverty and over two-thirds of persons in consistent poverty, while representing less than 22 of the overall population. Over half of persons at risk of poverty and nearly two-thirds of persons in consistent poverty lived in urban areas. See table 8. 3
4 Composition of gross household income classified by income decile, EU SILC Total direct income Decile Total social transfers Social transfers account for almost 20 of gross household income The proportion of gross household income received from social transfers increased from 18.7 in 2004 to 19.5 in Social transfers represented over 91 of gross income in the lowest decile and almost 81 of the second lowest decile in In contrast, just 5.5 of income in the top decile was generated from social transfers. See table 13 & graph opposite. Households in the lower deciles tended to be composed of persons not economically active, while persons at work were more prevalent in the upper deciles. Almost 80 of persons living in households in the lowest decile were either not economically active or unemployed, compared with just 17 in the top decile and just over one-third overall. See table 13. Top income group had almost five times more income than the bottom In 2005 the income quintile share ratio shows that persons in the top income quintile had almost 5 times the equivalised income of those in the bottom income quintile, indicating no significant change over the past 3 years. Another measure of inequality, the Gini coefficient, increased slightly over the period from 31.1 in 2003 and 31.8 in 2004 to 32.4 in There was also a slight increase in the relative at risk of poverty gap between 2004 and 2005 (19.8 in 2004 compared with 20.8 in 2005). See table 1. Just under 22 of average gross income in the lowest equivalised income decile and less than 30 in the second lowest decile was generated from direct income. The average net disposable equivalised income in the lowest income decile was almost 127, while it increased to almost 180 in the second decile. This compared with an average income of just over 960 in the top decile and approximately 380 overall. See table 14a. Over half the elderly had incomes close to the poverty threshold Over half of all persons aged 65 and over were in the second and third deciles, indicating that their income, mainly from pensions and survivors benefits, was close to the poverty threshold. A further 7.5 were in the bottom decile with the result that close to 60 were in the bottom three deciles compared with 30 for the population overall. See table 14c. Almost 60 of members of lone parent households were also in the bottom three deciles but their income situation was more severe in that the majority, representing almost a third of all persons in such households, were in the bottom decile. In contrast, just under 6 of persons living in households with 2 adults with 1-3 children were in the lowest income decile and just over 20 were in the bottom three deciles. See table 14c. Just over 12 of the lowest equivalised income decile were members of lone parent households, compared with 3.8 in the State. A high proportion of persons in the lowest income decile were living in other households with children (29.8) or households with 3 or more adults, no children (18.5). The second income decile contained a greater proportion of members of 1 adult, no children households (20.5) which was linked to the high occurrence of elderly also in this decile. Just over 27 of persons in the second decile were aged 65 or over, compared with 11.2 of the overall population. Persons in the two lowest deciles, accounting for 20 of the population, approximate quite closely those at risk of poverty at the 60 level. See table 14b. 4
5 Almost a quarter of persons with a chronic illness at risk of poverty In 2005, almost one in four of those with a chronic illness or disability were at risk of poverty, representing a decrease from the 2004 figure of just over 30. Those with a chronic illness had a significantly higher risk of poverty than those without a chronic illness (15.3), and they were almost twice as likely to be in consistent poverty (9.5 compared with 4.8). See table 11. It is estimated from the survey that in 2005 almost 32 of the population were covered by a medical card. The average equivalised income among those covered was almost 12,000 per annum, compared to over 23,000 for those without a medical card. Almost 41 of persons with a medical card were at risk of poverty compared with just over 44 in There was virtually no change in consistent poverty for those with a medical card between 2004 (18.1) and 2005 (18.2). See table 11. EU25 at-risk-of-poverty rate (60 threshold) including all social transfers, Belgium Czech Republic Denmark Germany Estonia Greece Spain France Ireland Italy Cyprus Latvia Lithuania Luxembourg Hungary Netherlands Austria Poland Portugal Slovenia Slovak Republic Finland Sweden UK Data for Malta is currently not available An estimated 48 of the population surveyed were covered by private medical insurance in The average equivalised income for this group was 25,549 per annum, compared with 14,523 for those without cover. The at risk of poverty rate for those without private health insurance was much higher than for those with insurance (28.8 compared with 7.1). They also had a substantially higher consistent poverty rate (12.6 compared with 0.7). Almost 25 of the population were not covered by either private medical insurance or a medical card. These persons had a lower than average at risk of poverty rate (12.1) and consistent poverty rate (3.6), while their average equivalised income was 18,119. See table 11. Smokers at higher risk of poverty The survey estimated that almost one in four of the population aged 16 and over smoked in Smokers had an average equivalised income of 17,937, almost 3,000 less than their non-smoking counterparts. The at risk of poverty rate for smokers was 21.4, compared to 16.1 for non-smokers, and they were over 2.5 times more likely to be in consistent poverty than non-smokers (10.9 compared to 4.2). Smoking was most common among members of lone parent households (53.9), the unemployed (48.6) and the ill or disabled (37.6). See tables 11 & 12. Irish at risk of poverty rate one of the highest in the EU Using the internationally comparable EU definition of income, the at risk of poverty rate in Ireland in 2005 was 19.7 compared with 20.9 in The latter was one of the highest rates in the EU, matched only by Portugal and the Slovak Republic and was significantly higher than the EU-25 at risk of poverty rate of 16. When all social transfers were excluded, the at risk of poverty rate in Ireland was 39 in 2004, the 7 th lowest of the 25 EU countries. However, the inclusion of social transfers only reduced the Irish risk by 18 percentage points, compared with an average 25 percentage points across the EU as a whole.
