I welcome Mr. Hanan and Mr. Ginnell to the meeting. I thank them for their attendance and for making a submission on this important issue. I ask for details on the European Anti-Poverty Network's international relationships and how the organisation is funded. This is my first meeting with the delegates.
It was stated in the presentation that one third of children are deprived in some way.
