Proceeding contribution from Earl of Mar and Kellie (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 24 January 2006. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Welfare Reform Green Paper.


Welfare Reform Green Paper

My Lords, I want to ask the Minister about the operation of the pilots in Scotland. First, will any pilots be undertaken in the city of Glasgow, which seems to have a disproportionate number of IB claimants under 25? The findings of such a pilot project will be interesting. Secondly, will there be any difficulties in dealing with GPs in Scotland because the health service is devolved?
