Proceeding contribution from Baroness Morgan of Drefelin (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

The regulations referred to with regard to Clause 40 are in the Red Book on page 138. I apologise if that was opaque. On the point made about information-sharing about fraud, I am informed that there is already a legislative gateway to share information to tackle fraud which has been in place for years, so there is no requirement for another gateway in the Bill. I therefore hope that Clause 40 can stand part of the Bill. On Question, amendment agreed to.
