Proceeding contribution from Lord Skelmersdale (Conservative) 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
This has a history, does it not? It started in the housing Green Paper published in 2000, which acknowledged that it would be difficult to reduce or withdraw housing benefit from a claimant guilty of anti-social behaviour without it impacting adversely on innocent members of the family. I shall be extremely interested in the Minister’s response as to how that thinking has now changed.
