Proceeding contribution from Graham Stuart (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 agree with the point that the hon. Gentleman has just made, which is all the more right because in a number of countries, including Denmark, the level of child poverty is below 5 per cent. Thus, to suggest that the eradication of child poverty should involve a figure of 10 per cent. is at least slightly misleading.
