Proceeding contribution from Lord McKenzie of Luton (Labour) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 21 January 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Child Poverty Bill.
Child Poverty Bill
No one is saying that the commission is precluded from consulting with children. It is the particular requirement that we think is inappropriate. We would expect the commission to be a body of experts who would sometimes be able to come forward themselves with advice, so they may wish to consult. It is building in an obligation to do so that we think is inappropriate.
