- the Financial Inclusion Fund will continue for the next spending period;
- the current level of intensity of action to promote financial inclusion will be maintained, with the exact amount of the new Fund to be determined after the CSR;
- a cross-Government working group composed of ministers with an interest in financial inclusion will be established to develop policy next steps, and publish a detailed action plan after the CSR; and
- the Financial Inclusion Taskforce will be extended so that it continues throughout the next spending period.
