Proceeding contribution from Natascha Engel (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 9 January 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Welfare Reform Bill.
Welfare Reform Bill
Let me make two brief points. First, the hon. Gentleman’s comments presuppose that a work-focused interview would be mandatory for a person in a support group, which is not the case. Secondly, the sanction could not happen without a movement from the support group to the employment group. Without such a movement, all the points raised by the hon. Gentleman are completely irrelevant.
