Proceeding contribution from Lord Wigley (Plaid Cymru) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 13 October 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Welfare Reform Bill.


Welfare Reform Bill

Will the Minister assure us that circumstances where there are twins, when costs are surprisingly high because the same problems arise with two children who are of the same age and need individual care, were taken into account when the figure for one child and the figure for two or more were determined? I declare an interest as a grandfather of twins.
