<p>The Prime Minister is clear that tackling poverty and disadvantage, and delivering
real social reform, is a priority for this Government</p><p> </p><p>In each of the
last five years the Child Poverty Unit was jointly sponsored by the Department for
Work and Pensions, the Department for Education and HM Treasury. Staff from DWP and
DfE were deployed to the unit. It is not possible to provide accurate total annual
budget figures for the Child Poverty Unit because we cannot disaggregate the respective
amounts from larger DWP and DfE budgets within which they are included.</p>
