Proceeding contribution from Jonathan Shaw (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 10 November 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill on Welfare Reform Bill.

Welfare Reform Bill

I thank the hon. Gentleman for his comments. He is absolutely right that we are talking about trailblazers, not pilots. That is the policy intention. We have had the pilots and we have learned from them about what works and about those areas where we need to improve things. I appreciate, too, his words about our discussions with Baroness Campbell. I hope that the House will accept the amendments. Lords amendment 30 agreed to, with Commons privileges waived. Lords amendments 31 to 49 agreed to, with Commons privileges waived in respect of Lords amendments 31, 38, 44 and 48.
