Proceeding contribution from Tom Levitt (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 27 January 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Welfare Reform Bill.


Welfare Reform Bill

Does my right hon. Friend agree that the Bill is very timely, because at a time of economic downturn it is more important than ever that we put the work in to ensure that people do not get too far away from the workplace and are able to come back into it as soon as the economic conditions allow?
