An tOrd Gnó - Order of Business
Dail Éireann — 2023-07-11
============================================================

Jennifer Whitmore (SD), Wicklow

Barnardo's is again raising the issue of child poverty and the increasing number of families being pulled into poverty and deprivation. It is calling on the Government to target child poverty and ensure families hit by it will be protected in the upcoming budget. The Taoiseach said that when he first took up office that he wanted to focus on this area. It is timely for us to have a debate in the Dáil on child poverty and the measures the Government is taking to address it.
