Proceeding contribution from Lord McKenzie of Luton (Labour) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 1 March 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Welfare Reform Bill.
Welfare Reform Bill
It is an unfair representation of the Government’s position to say that we want to do it when we like. I have tried to outline that we want to see the progress that Pathways and the ESA when introduced will make to understand the evolving situation with which we are faced. The reassurance for noble Lords is that the regulations will be affirmative. That is a substantial reassurance: it is an opportunity for Parliament to scrutinise.
