Switzerland and the United States - are included in the league table of relative child poverty (Figure 1 b) but could not be included in the league table of child deprivation (Figure 1a) because relevant data are not available. Child deprivation data are drawn from the European Union Statistics on Income and Living Conditions and are therefore only available for the 27 EU countries plus Iceland and Norway. What these different pictures mean - the relationship between them and the controversies surrounding them - is the subject of this Report Card.
