Child Poverty Bill

Proceeding contribution from Graham Stuart (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 20 July 2009. It occurred during Debate on bills on Child Poverty Bill.
As always, the hon. Gentleman is making a thoughtful contribution. Does he think a Select Committee might be a better means of holding the Government to account than an annual debate, even if that were granted—Ministers usually oppose putting that into legislation? Such a debate may not have the same effect as perhaps bringing a number of relevant Ministers before a Select Committee where they can be examined in detail.
