Proceeding contribution from Baroness Hollis of Heigham (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 25 January 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Child Poverty Bill.


Child Poverty Bill

Does the noble Lord not agree that that is not the right question to ask? Having got the transfer of income to address the child poverty issue, the question is what we must do at the same time to ensure child well-being. These are not either/ors, but the noble Lord keeps trying to suggest that they are.
