Proceeding contribution from Eilidh Whiteford (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Monday, 13 June 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Welfare Reform Bill (Programme) (No. 2).


Welfare Reform Bill (Programme) (No. 2)

Will the Minister clarify whether any judicial process will be applied to attachments in relation to someone's earnings? The reason I ask is because, as I am sure all hon. Members know, mistakes happen, sometimes because of errors on a claimant's part but sometimes because of errors by the bureaucracy, and I am concerned that there may not be enough safeguards to ensure that attachments will not be made erroneously.
