Proceeding contribution from Baroness Masham of Ilton (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 20 February 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Welfare Reform Bill.


Welfare Reform Bill

From a Cross-Bench position, I support the amendments. Disability is exceedingly complex; when you are talking about mental health and bodily health—a word I had not heard before, but I suppose I am included, having a disability—it is vital to have properly trained staff, otherwise there will be a muddle.
