Proceeding contribution from Greg Hands (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 24 July 2006. It occurred during Debate on bill on Welfare Reform Bill.
Welfare Reform Bill
My impression has been that the Liberal Democrats have pretty much opposed every piece of antisocial behaviour legislation. Can the hon. Gentleman go into a little detail about why he opposes this measure? It seems to me that it is removing housing benefit from people who have already been evicted for antisocial behaviour, and is essentially designed to get such people to undertake a rehabilitation course?
