Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, if her Department will make an estimate of the potential impact of removing the two-child benefit cap on the number of children in poverty.

Recognising the wide-ranging causes of child poverty, our new Ministerial Taskforce will explore how we can use all the available levers we have across government and wider society to drive forward the change our children need.
