Proceeding contribution from Lord Northbourne (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 7 July 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Welfare Reform Bill.
Welfare Reform Bill
That just makes it one step more complicated, does it not? And it will all be leaked to the press before it goes to the Select Committee. There might even be another Government at that time. It is all very complicated. Whoever is in that seat in X years’ time has to come back and say, "Look, we made a frightful mess of this" or "What we did was really terrific". I do not want to waste the Committee’s time. I want to add my very great thanks to the noble Baroness, Lady Crawley, the team, the Chairman and the leaders of the three parties for what has been a very useful and constructive Grand Committee. I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment 188 withdrawn. Clause 52 agreed. Bill reported with amendments.
