Proceeding contribution from Nick Smith (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 1 December 2010. It occurred during Grand Committee proceedings (HC) on Comprehensive Spending Review.


Comprehensive Spending Review

On that point, does my right hon. Friend agree that it is not justifiable that housing benefit for the long-term unemployed will be cut by 10% should they be unemployed for a year? Is that not disgraceful, absolutely wrong and not at all progressive?
