Business question from Bob Blackman (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 20 October 2011. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.


Business of the House

Although I will defend for ever people's right to protest and demonstrate peacefully, the growing encampment outside St Paul's cathedral has residents who are clearly not available for work and should not be eligible for state benefits. May we have a statement from the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions on what action the Government are taking to withdraw those benefits from people who are resident there?
