Proceeding contribution from Baroness May of Maidenhead (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 20 July 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Child Poverty Bill.
Child Poverty Bill
I will come on to a very important issue that I believe lies behind child and family poverty, but is not referred to in that clause, as my hon. Friend the Member for South-West Devon (Mr. Streeter) pointed out. There are some interesting Government recognitions, not in the Bill but in the regulatory impact assessment and the explanatory notes—I shall mention them later—which suggest that they are at last, after 12 years, beginning to realise that there is more to the issue than finance.
