Proceeding contribution from Lord Goodlad (Conservative) 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

To follow what the noble Lord, Lord Pannick, said, I am grateful to the Minister for his customary courtesy and thoroughness in going through these issues, but, as he pointed out, we are addressing issues that were already rehearsed and determined last year in the present Parliament, and it is bizarre that we are revisiting them now. The Select Committee will examine with great care what the Minister and my noble friend Lord Skelmersdale have said to see whether it is consistent with what has been said before and with the European Convention on Human Rights.
