Proceeding contribution from Lord Ramsbotham (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 11 June 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Welfare Reform Bill.


Welfare Reform Bill

I am very grateful to the Minister for that explanation. My reference to the culture of disbelief was focused not so much on mental health as on good cause and the points surrounding reasons for not doing something. I am conscious of the work on a lot of mental health issues. I am very grateful for that and am taking part in some of it.
