Proceeding contribution from Kelvin Hopkins (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 10 December 2009. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Pensioner Poverty.


Pensioner Poverty

I am grateful to my hon. Friend for giving way again—she is most generous. She talks about ensuring that everyone gets the benefits to which they are entitled ands says that it is simple. Would it not be simpler to have one Department with responsibility for benefits and a one-stop shop that can deal with all of the details for every person in one place, by one person and at the same time?
