Proceeding contribution from Lord Rowlands (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 21 July 2008. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Welfare Reform.


Welfare Reform

My Lords, as president of the National Training Federation for Wales, I offer a rather different view on the Freud report. Given that in the past week we have seen the fiasco of a large American company hopelessly fail effectively to deliver SATs results, why does my noble friend believe that large American manpower companies will be able to deliver the welfare-to-work programmes more efficiently and more effectively than local providers, who know their communities and those communities’ needs, because that will be the consequence of implementing Freud?
