Proceeding contribution from Janet Daby (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 8 December 2025. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Child Poverty Strategy.
Child Poverty Strategy
Official figures show that over 4,000 children in my constituency are living in poverty, and many of those families have one parent in work. I warmly welcome the Secretary of State’s child poverty strategy and all the work that she and her colleagues have done, as well as the lifting of the two-child limit, but would she agree that what we now need to see is children and families not needing to use food banks?
