Proceeding contribution from Baroness Murphy (Crossbench) 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

Perhaps the noble Lord would explain to me how that problem might be tackled as there is a real danger of getting to a position where one could be coerced—that is the word I would use. For a whole range of reasons, it might appear to an adviser that someone is being awkward and does not want to do that for a reason that the adviser would not find appropriate. I would like the noble Lord to explore that further.
