We recommend that the Government conducts and publishes an assessment of the impact on child poverty of its planned changes to routes to settlement, before finalising and implementing these changes. To mitigate the impact of the changes, the Home Office should make it easier for parents who are subject to the No Recourse to Public Funds (NRPF) condition to access financial support where this is essential for supporting the welfare of a child. The Government should also adequately fund local authorities to cover the costs of supporting households who are subject to the NRPF condition. (Recommendation, Paragraph 83)
