Proceeding contribution from Lord Skelmersdale (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 23 March 2009. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Financial Assistance Scheme and Incapacity Benefit (Miscellaneous Amendments) Regulations 2009.


Financial Assistance Scheme and Incapacity Benefit (Miscellaneous Amendments) Regulations 2009

Before the Minister sits down, I asked him, with regard to the incapacity benefit part of the order, if he could confirm that no one will be worse off than if they had to live on incapacity benefits only. I am sure that the answer is no, but I hope he will be able to confirm that.
