Proceeding contribution from Steve Webb (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 10 March 2011. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Housing Benefit.
Housing Benefit
It is important that those who listen to our debates understand whether the hon. Lady opposes all the changes. She has mentioned 1 million losers. Does she accept that roughly 500,000 households would have lost in any case through the abolition of the £15 excess, which the previous Government were going to implement but put off until after the election? Does she support those losses affecting 500,000 households, or does she oppose them?
