Proceeding contribution from Sajid Javid (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 11 October 2010. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Welfare Reform.

Welfare Reform

I paid a visit to my local jobcentre in Bromsgrove earlier this month, and I learned from the advisers that, in many cases, it takes them more than an hour to determine whether a jobseeker would be better or worse off by taking just six hours of employment in a week. Does my right hon. Friend agree that the introduction of the universal credit and the taper relief system will make a dramatic difference to job incentives for jobseekers, and also increase their life chances?
