Labour — Houghton and Sunderland South

Speaking in the House of Commons on 8 December 2025

Debate

Child Poverty Strategy

Contribution

I am sure that the hon. Gentleman has made his views known to Ministers at the Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government, but I will ensure that they are passed along. Lifting the two-child limit, expanding access to childcare, expanding free school meals, increasing the national minimum wage and expanding rights at works are big changes that will make a real difference to children and families in his constituency.
