Proceeding contribution from Lord Skelmersdale (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 15 June 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Welfare Reform Bill.


Welfare Reform Bill

I think that I understand the Minister’s explanation. Perhaps I should have tabled an amendment to line 31 on page 2 to leave out the words, ""is to be treated as"." Although the Minister has explained that the person would "be treated as", why not just get on with it and do so?
