Child Poverty (No. 2)

EDM number 2155 in 2007-08, proposed by Harry Cohen on 06/10/2008.
Categorised under the topics of Children and families and Incomes and poverty.

That this House considers that the application of resources to reduce child poverty to try to reach the Government's 2010 interim target should be the highest priority in the Chancellor's pre-Budget report, and that this should not be diluted by the provision of resources to banks.

This motion has been signed by a total of 34 MPs.
