Proceeding contribution from Lord McKenzie of Luton (Labour) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 18 June 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Welfare Reform Bill.
Welfare Reform Bill
I am certainly happy to reflect on that. I genuinely think that it is unnecessary, however. I do not think that we are apart on what we want these action plans to contain, and the framing of the legislation is perfectly adequate to achieve that. The amendment is not particularly helpful. If the request were whether there was some other way to change the legislation to make it clear in primary legislation that it should be personalised to the circumstances of the individual, I would be happy to reflect on that. I cannot promise that we would end up with a different result. I do not detect from any of this exchange that we have a difference of view on what we want those action plans to contain in practice and what we want them to achieve.
