Proceeding contribution from Lord McKenzie of Luton (Labour) 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
