29 Jan 2026
Realising potential: Delivering the Child Poverty Strategy Work and Pensions Committee (Select) Not accepting submissions Members of the Education and Work and Pensions Select Committees have decided to undertake an inquiry that will consider how the Government can ensure it will deliver a successful Child Poverty Strategy. On 5 December 2025, the Government published its Child Poverty Strategy, which it estimates will lift 550,000 children out of poverty by the final year of this Parliament. The Strategy sets out measures across three different areas: (i) boosting family incomes; (ii) driving down the cost of essentials; and (iii) strengthening local support. Whilst the Strategy signals a positive step in the right direction, the Committees are seeking to explore if the Government is being sufficiently ambitious. The Committees will also consider how accountability, outcomes, and the longevity of the Strategy could be strengthened through targets, monitoring and evaluation, to ensure sustained work and progress to reduce child poverty. Please read Parliament's guidance on giving evidence to select committees before writing your submission. For safeguarding reasons and to avoid identification, please refrain from naming specific people, educational settings or children in your submission. We are unable to publish personal testimony evidence that is submitted anonymously or contains this information. Personal testimony evidence that cannot be published will be read and summarised into an anonymised thematic note. Your submission should be no more than 3,000 words. You can submit evidence until 23:59 on 6 March 2026. Read the call for evidence for more detail about the inquiry |
