MINOS
: A Dynamic Microsimulation for the Interrogation of Health and Social Science Systems
MINOS is a microsimulation model that is able to test cash transfer policies on a representative population of the UK.
We have used this model to test policy in areas such as
housing quality, energy poverty
, and
child poverty.
Example: Expanding the Scottish Child Payment to England and Wales.
