Clause 12 - Subscription limits
Child Trust Funds Bill
11:00 am
Mr David Laws (Yeovil, Liberal Democrat)
I beg to move amendment No. 172, in
clause 12, page 6, line 43, at end add—
'(4) The Inland Revenue shall publish, by 31st March 2005, proposals to allow direct payments of child benefit to child trust fund accounts.'.
This is a simple probing amendment, which I shall not push to a Division. It is designed to explore whether the Government intend to introduce proposals to allow direct payments of child benefit into child trust fund accounts. The hon. Member for Tatton touched on the issue earlier.
