Proceeding contribution from David Gauke (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 20 July 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Finance Bill.
Finance Bill
We have taken measures to secure the public finances for the longer term, but we have done so by protecting the poorest in society. We have provided a triple guarantee for pensioners and we have finally restored the earnings link that our predecessors did not succeed in restoring in 13 years. In addition, we have taken steps to increase the child tax credit by £150 next year and by £60 in the following year. As a result, levels of child poverty after the Budget will remain unaffected, taking into account all the measures of the next couple of years.
