Proceeding contribution from Baroness May of Maidenhead (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 10 March 2009. It occurred during Opposition day on Unemployment.
Unemployment
I did indeed want to intervene on points that the Secretary of State is making, particularly about invest to save. He is absolutely right—he has followed our policy on welfare reform and he is adopting our proposals on invest to save. However, he is being timid about it, which means that people will not get the help that they deserve as quickly as they should. Will he not now adopt our welfare reform proposals in full, rather than take the rather timid approach that he has taken hitherto?
