The article discusses reports released in Scotland, "Taking Forward the Government Economic Strategy: A Discussion Paper on Tackling Poverty, Equality and Deprivation in Scotland," released by the government and "Poverty in Scotland" and "Child Poverty in Scotland," released by the House of Commons Scottish Affairs Committee. The first report tackled sustainable economic growth and prevention of poverty. The second focused on anti-poverty while the third report suggested that child poverty is better addressed in Scotland than in Great Britain.
