Proceeding contribution from Lord Skelmersdale (Conservative) 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

Sure. But I mean the DWP medical team uses a computer-aided assessment to make a final assessment of the individual’s problems. This is now up and running. Can the Minister tell me whether the situation has got any better? When we last discussed the matter within the context of the first Welfare Reform Bill, this was going to be the all-singing, all-dancing thing that would cure everything. Has it?
