Child Poverty Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord Freud (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 25 January 2010. It occurred during Debate on bills and Committee proceeding on Child Poverty Bill.
Before the Minister finishes and I respond, my question is: what does "socio-economic disadvantage" mean? If I am a child—which once I was—how do I sue the Secretary of State for not worrying about my socio-economic disadvantage? What do I say? What has he not done? What am I suing for? It is meant to be a law, but if it does not mean anything why have it? If it means something, what does it mean?
