Proceeding contribution from Baroness Browning (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 24 July 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Welfare Reform Bill.

Welfare Reform Bill

I notice that on several occasions the Secretary of State has referred to getting people back into work. Will some of the proposals that he is spelling out today also apply to people who have never enjoyed paid employment? They include people with learning disabilities, autism or mental health problems, who might well be in their 20s or 30s, and who would like to work but have no previous experience of doing so.
