Proceeding contribution from Eilidh Whiteford (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 15 June 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Welfare Reform Bill.
Welfare Reform Bill
As it is carers week, it is also important to remember that when someone is having treatment in a hospital that may be some distance from home, there is also an impact on family members, who end up taking time off work and have to pay high travel costs. That has an impact on the whole family's income, not just the person who is suffering the illness.
