TUAC has issued and evaluation of the OECD Ministerial Council held on 4-5 June that says that the Ministers' conclusions failed to respond adequately to the continuing economic and financial crises. However it notes that the OECD is supposed to give priority to inequality issues as well as assessing the distributive impacts of the policy choices surrounding climate change.
