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 am grateful to the noble Baroness. I was thinking that a member of staff from a jobcentre could, for example, read the local paper. The information is available, but not necessarily to the client at the time when he wants it. The noble Baroness has made a valuable suggestion.
