abstract: 'The new Labour government in Britain has made the reduction of child

  poverty one of its central objectives. This article analyses the

  circumstances of children in poverty and describes the specific

  initiatives involved in Labour''s approach and weighs them up in terms of

  their potential impact. The impact on child poverty of policies designed

  to raise incomes directly is analysed using micro-simulation modelling,

  A major emphasis of current policy is on the promotion of paid work, and

  we explore the potential for poverty reduction of increasing the

  employment of parents. The policies that address long-term disadvantage

  are also discussed and finally the whole programme is assessed and

  future strategy is considered.'
