Business question from Bridget Phillipson (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 28 October 2010. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

May I press the Leader of the House again on the urgent need for a debate on the Government's plans for housing benefit? The Government simply do not appear to appreciate the misery, the poverty and the homelessness that the cuts will cause, not only to those who are seeking work but, because housing benefit is also an in-work benefit, to hard-working, low-income families and pensioners.
