Child Poverty Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord Freud (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 8 February 2010. It occurred during Debate on bills and Committee proceeding on Child Poverty Bill.
It is important at this stage to clarify this because you never know what will appear in the Guardian the next day. I always endeavour to tell the truth. We are committed to financial targets as measures but we believe that tackling child poverty needs a different approach in tackling the causes of poverty. We are additive not subtractive in our strategy.
