Proceeding contribution from Lord Hutton of Furness (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 24 July 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Welfare Reform Bill.
Welfare Reform Bill
That is precisely what pathways to work currently provides. It is true that the details of that are not spelt out in the Bill, but we recognise the need for the Department and for Jobcentre Plus to provide such ongoing support. In Scotland there are now fewer people claiming incapacity benefit than there were in 1997.
