Proceeding contribution from Lord Skelmersdale (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 22 June 2009. It occurred during Committee proceeding and Debate on bill on Welfare Reform Bill.

Welfare Reform Bill

Of course I will, but I asked for how long the protection is to continue. What I did not say in moving the amendment and speaking to the other two, which I suppose that I should have done, was that they are, of course, probing and intended to get that information from the Minister. Can he help me with the length of time of the transitional arrangements? Do they last until the individual finds work, or is there a period after which they sort of fall off the cliff edge?
