Proceeding contribution from Lord Taylor of Holbeach (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
I am happy to withdraw my amendment, because I was much reassured by the noble Baroness’s comments about the transparency of the process, which the amendment was seeking to establish. When the two-year review takes place, we should have the opportunity to see the demographic influence that the process may have had. Perhaps the biggest danger in setting this rent level is the possibility of our upsetting the mixed demographics of substantial communities. I hope that that will be part and parcel of the review. It should not look just at the efficacy of the system in providing rental cover.
