Proceeding contribution from Steve Webb (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 20 July 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Child Poverty Bill.


Child Poverty Bill

It is Steve Webb, but if I say something stupid it is Ed Davey. [Laughter.] No, I take that back. The shadow Secretary of State commits herself to the aspirations of the Bill, which I welcome. She will have read the regulatory impact assessment, which costs achieving the Bill's goal at about £21 billion a year. Does she have any views on where that money might come from?
