Proceeding contribution from Baroness Hollis of Heigham (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 27 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 his remarks are completely at odds with his previous amendment on the disparities in the equivalence scales, which suggest that couples are over-provided for and single-parent families are under-provided for? That was the noble Lord’s own argument.
