Ministry for Poverty Prevention Bill [HL]
[As Introduced]
A
BILL
to
This bill proposes creating a new government ministry dedicated entirely to preventing poverty. Rather than poverty being handled by several different government departments, this would establish a single focused ministry with its own minister to develop and coordinate policies aimed at stopping poverty before it starts and supporting people in financial difficulty.
Presented by Lord Bird.
