Free School Meals

Proceeding contribution from Miriam Cates (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 21 October 2020. It occurred during Opposition day on Free School Meals.

My hon. Friend is making an excellent speech. Does she agree with me that the very fact that we have reopened schools—99% of state schools are now open—shows just how committed this Government are to tackling child poverty, because saving our children’s education and catching children up where they have fallen behind is the No. 1 thing we can do to help bring people out of poverty?
