Ten Minute Rule MotionTuesday, 30 June 2026

Child savings accounts (mental capacity and disability)

MP proposes a new law (usually symbolic)

A Ten Minute Rule Motion to explore child savings accounts for young people with mental capacity issues or disabilities. The motion seeks to establish whether dedicated savings products could help vulnerable children and young adults build financial security and independence, particularly by addressing gaps in existing financial planning for those who may struggle to manage money independently.

This affects disabled children and young people preparing for adulthood, and their families planning for long-term care and financial security. The proposal has potential implications for social care policy and the financial resilience of vulnerable households, as savings accounts designed with mental capacity needs in mind could reduce future dependence on state support.
