Proceeding contribution from Baroness Hollis of Heigham (Labour) 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

Is the Minister prepared to introduce a subsequent clause at a later stage which would give priority on direct debits to a rent payment so that the bank, overdrafts, other creditors or whatever should not take a prior slice of the money, thus making it impossible for the landlord to receive the full rent?
