Compared to the previous year, 2021, the relative share of the poor population is up by 0.8%. One of the reasons indicated for the increased number of poor people in this country is the Covid-10 pandemic which has deepened inequality and has affected a number of sectors of the economy. The share of poor people is highest among single member households of people over the age of 65.
