Proceeding contribution from Anne Begg (Labour) 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)

Clearly the Minister has moved on this issue, but there is still the problem that the affirmative procedure is ““take it or leave it””. The Work and Pensions Committee and other Members have no ability to amend regulations, so it is not the same as the line-by-line scrutiny that primary legislation receives.
