Narrative:
On departure out of ewr; level at 6;000 feet between elvae intersection and the col VOR on the EWR4 departure. ATC instructed a 130 degree heading. There was a VFR aircraft 3-4 hundred feet below us in that same direction. Captain delayed the turn for a moment or two; knowing that the turn would likely put us in conflict with the aircraft; then complied with ATC instruction to turn. The heading put us directly towards the aircraft but I had the aircraft in sight. Received a climb RA and complied with it. Informed ATC of our RA and climb.
