Proceeding contribution from Mark Lazarowicz (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 9 March 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Welfare Reform Bill.
Welfare Reform Bill
Another possible circumstance could arise where people who have been in work all their lives and have never had to claim any benefit suddenly find that after 20 or 30 years they have to apply for housing benefit and face the prospect of having to leave the house that they have lived in for decades. Would that not be extremely inhumane as well?
