Poverty in the Liverpool city region

This debate pack has been prepared ahead of the debate on poverty in the Liverpool city region to be held in Westminster Hall on Wednesday 1 March at 2:30pm. The subject for the debate has been chosen by Steve Rotheram MP.

The House of Commons Library prepares a briefing in hard copy and/or online for most non-legislative debates in the Chamber and Westminster Hall other than half-hour debates. Debate Packs are produced quickly after the announcement of parliamentary business. They are intended to provide a summary or overview of the issue being debated and identify relevant briefings and useful documents, including press and parliamentary material. More detailed briefing can be prepared for Members on request to the Library.
