Proceeding contribution from Baroness Hollis of Heigham (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 19 March 2007. It occurred during Debate on bill on Welfare Reform Bill.
Welfare Reform Bill
My Lords, is my noble friend confirming that no staff member in a local benefit office could decide that such an activity was not part of work-related activity and therefore did not come within the earnings disregard, and that therefore the person would not be a beneficiary of the change in policy? Is he saying that that could not happen?
