Proceeding contribution from Baroness Pitkeathley (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 9 December 2009. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Social Security (Contributions Credits for Parents and Carers) Regulations 2009.
Social Security (Contributions Credits for Parents and Carers) Regulations 2009
I thank the noble Lord for that clarification. I always feel very strongly about this, as noble Lords will perhaps permit. The noble Lord also made a point about the cost. We always have to bear in mind the cost of not supporting carers, not only during their caring life but after their caring has ceased. They contribute £87 billion to the economy. The costs of this measure have to be taken in proportion. I conclude with sincere thanks and congratulations to the Minister.
