Proceeding contribution from Lord Hutton of Furness (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 22 November 2005. It occurred during Opposition day on Welfare Reform and Incapacity Benefit.
Welfare Reform and Incapacity Benefit
No, I am going to make this point, because the right hon. and learned Gentleman has asked me about it. I have made it repeatedly clear that the reforms that we are making are based on our manifesto and the five-year-plan strategy that my predecessor, my right hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry, the Member for Kingston upon Hull, West and Hessle (Alan Johnson), produced in February. It is clear to anyone that that agenda is not about cuts. I have made that explicitly clear and I do so again today.
