Proceeding contribution from Richard Fuller (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 11 October 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Welfare Reform.
Welfare Reform
Many of us welcome the Secretary of State's efforts to tackle the scourge of worklessness and to end the era in this country of indiscriminate and too often counter-productive welfare. On work capability assessment, he will know that these macro benefits are built on a series of individual assessments by a particular doctor on a particular day of a particular condition. May I press my right hon. Friend to take a personal interest to ensure that assessments of neurological disorders and mental health issues in particular are done fairly?
