Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:

To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what recent assessment his Department has made of trends in the level of children living in poverty in Hornsey and Wood Green constituency.

Latest statistics for the levels of children who are in low income in the Hornsey and Wood Green constituency are published “Children in Low Income Families”, and can be found here.

National and regional statistics on the number and percentage of children in low income are published annually in the “Households Below Average Income” publication, and can be found here.

Due to methodological differences, the figures in these two publications are not comparable.
