Proceeding contribution from Countess of Mar (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 30 June 2009. It occurred during Committee proceeding and Debate on bill on Welfare Reform Bill.

Welfare Reform Bill

When these workshops are being run, are there people from the individual categories who give their experience of their relationship with jobcentre staff? Explaining their difficulties would assist such staff. It is all very well to have a tutor at the front of the room who says this, this and this, but to have an individual who has undergone some of the processes would be enormously helpful. That has been recognised in a much wider field outside. Will the Minister take that on board?
