Child Trust Funds

Proceeding contribution from Jeremy Quin (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 19 March 2024. It occurred during Backbench debate on Child Trust Funds.

First, on the specific point of proportionality, does the right hon. Gentleman agree that the financial providers are talking about sums below £5,000, and the average child trust fund here is about £2,000? Secondly, tens of thousands of pounds would to through the DWP appointee scheme, which means that in comparison the child trust fund is a tiny amount of money. On the grounds of proportionality, the right hon. Gentleman is making an extremely good case.
