Proceeding contribution from Lord Oakeshott of Seagrove Bay (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Lords on Monday, 10 November 2008. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Social Security (Miscellaneous Amendments) (No. 4) Regulations 2008.
Social Security (Miscellaneous Amendments) (No. 4) Regulations 2008
