8	8	A 2013 report from the Carnegie Trust together with ONS data compiled in the same year provide evidence that internet access is related to educational achievement, job prospects, contact with family and friends and democratic and civic participation, along with access to public and private goods and services, advice, information and knowledge. As an enabler, it is therefore relevant to many aspects of the social floor within this report. In terms of a social norm, around 75 percent of those surveyed for the latest PSE: UK report stated that children need a computer and internet access at home for homework. The Carnegie Trust report argues that, as the scope of what can be done over the internet increases, so too will the inequalities and exclusions for those who have no access ‘…to such an extent that [the] lack will be both the symptom and cause of poverty’. We therefore chose to include Internet access as a sub-domain within the social floor under Connectivity

11		-The other sub-domain within Connectivity is transport. Since at least 2003, transport has been widely understood to play a central role in social exclusion and people’s experiences of poverty. Accessible transport, in terms of both availability and price, was identified as a significant factor in the work undertaken for the Oxfam Humankind Index. It impacts various aspects of life, such as people’s access to the labour market and to goods and services (including health services), and heavily shapes their ability to form and maintain social networks. Its central role is revealed by a respondent to the Humankind Index consultation: ‘[G]etting a job is a nightmare. There's no transport after 7pm or at weekends, so I can't work at weekends.’
