Child Poverty Bill

Let me just explain what I mean by "in principle". I am looking to improve them in particular ways—we are in the middle of a discussion on one of the ways in which one could tighten them—and I am looking to add one where I think it would capture the very poorest children in a precise way, which would be immensely valuable. I am looking forward to meeting the Minister—this will be the high point of the next few days for me—where he will try to convince me that any additional financial target is entirely unnecessary and I will endeavour to convince him that it will add valuable information about the neediest children.
