Proceeding contribution from Lord Redwood (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 9 January 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Welfare Reform Bill.


Welfare Reform Bill

My hon. Friend is making a powerful point about the gradations involved, and more of the detail will come out in the regulations. The annual report is intended to prevent people who need support from suffering injustice or lack of sympathy, but does he believe that it will achieve the Government’s objective and succeed in reducing the numbers of claimants by 1 million?
