Proceeding contribution from Lord Northbourne (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 2 July 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Welfare Reform Bill.


Welfare Reform Bill

I was not intending to intervene in this debate, but the noble Baroness talked about the complications of becoming an employer. I have just received the paperwork from the relevant authority about what I have to do in order to employ one person, and I am shattered by it. Somebody who has not had any kind of experience of paperwork cannot be expected to do it without help.
