Proceeding contribution from Lord Freud (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 20 October 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Welfare Reform Bill.
Welfare Reform Bill
Yes, my Lords. We are currently looking at how to allocate the additional discretionary payments to councils and clearly we need to look at the factors that will create additional costs for different councils. We are conducting an exercise to do that; we are not just blindly following the current allocation of discretionary payments, because we know that there are additional burdens. We will make those changes.
