Proceeding contribution from Mark Hoban (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 26 October 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill on Savings Accounts and Health in Pregnancy Grant Bill.


Savings Accounts and Health in Pregnancy Grant Bill

Let me make some progress. Although the previous Government said the grant was intended to support the general health and well-being of women in the later stages of pregnancy, there is no requirement to use the grant for better health and well-being. Women can spend the money on whatever they want, and the grant also goes to pregnant women regardless of their income and their need for it.
