Church Action On Poverty Declaration

EDM number 134 in 1989-90, proposed by John Battle on 04/12/1989.

That this House welcomes the launch of the declaration, 'Hearing the Cry of the Poor', by Church Action on Poverty; recognises that it has support from the whole spectrum of the churches in Britain and is endorsed by many leaders of the different Christian traditions and organisations; understands that it is rooted in the personal and pastoral experience of the churches with, and alongside, the poor in our society; and urges all to endorse the declaration as a basis for action.

This motion has been signed by a total of 67 MPs.
