Proceeding contribution from Lord Evans of Temple Guiting (Labour) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 18 May 2006. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Social Security (Income Support and Jobseekers Allowance) Amendment Regulations 2006.


Social Security (Income Support and Jobseeker’s Allowance) Amendment Regulations 2006

My Lords, that is the point that has been made and we shall consider it. As I said a moment ago, if any jobseekers are shown to be disadvantaged by the eight-week limit, we shall consider extending that provision. So I am introducing some degree of flexibility here, which is what noble Lords appear to be aiming for.
