Proceeding contribution from Baroness Turner of Camden (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 3 November 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Welfare Reform Bill.

Welfare Reform Bill

My Lords, I, too, thank my noble friend for the amendments and his statement. I, too, raised the matter of the pressure that might be exerted on lone parents to indulge in work-related activity if they were not in a position to do so—because they had a disabled child, for example. My noble friend’s statement covered the concerns that many of us raised and I am grateful for it.
