Keep poverty on the agenda ~ Christian Aid campaign

As the Dáil returns from the summer recess, Christian Aid wants to deliver a strong message to urge them to keep global poverty issues on the agenda.

 Introduce a strong climate law.
 Commit to the UN target of 0.7% aid by 2015.
 Help end international tax dodging.
