motion: <p class="italic" pid="a.1430.3/1" pwmotiontext="unrecognized"> Moved By Lord Touhig</p>
  
  <p class="indent" pid="a.1430.3/2" pwmotiontext="unrecognized">To move to resolve that this House regrets that Her Majesty's Government have laid before Parliament the Social Fund Maternity Grant Amendment Regulations 2011 (SI 2011/100) at unnecessary speed and without providing more information on the impact on new mothers and children in low-income families; and notes with concern that the regulations will remove funds from some of the poorest families during the crucial early months of a child's life.</p>
