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

Much of what the Minister said could have been quoted almost directly from the housing White Paper of 2000. I asked him what had changed since then. I accept that he has talked of the increasing availability of rehabilitation services and such like, but I am far from certain that that is enough to withdraw all our objections to the clause.
