Tax evasion 'causing child deaths'

Tax evasion is causing 1,000 children to die every day, a charity report claims.

Christian Aid insists the 160 billion US dollars (£82 billion) in tax revenue lost worldwide every year means poorer countries are losing out.

If the money was paid and allocated according to current spending patterns, the lives of 350,000 children under five could be saved every year.
