Proceeding contribution from Iain Duncan Smith (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 17 February 2011. It occurred during Debates on delegated legislation on Social Security.
Social Security
The right hon. Gentleman may have failed to understand my point. The Opposition are not in government, by definition, and they have to decide what they will do in this Parliament. What is his position in this Parliament? We have said that the change is permanent. Do they support that for this Parliament or not? Do they support it for a year, two years, three years or four years? What is their position on CPI? All we need to know is whether they support it for this Parliament.
