Proceeding contribution from Lord McKenzie of Luton (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 26 October 2011. It occurred during Committee proceeding and Debate on bill on Welfare Reform Bill.


Welfare Reform Bill

My noble friend says that it is all my fault; I am not sure I ever introduced anything like this, but perhaps she did. The key issue here is that the requirements are not necessarily blanket impositions on individuals, and where that they are particularly beneficial there is support for those who are not able, without that support, to benefit from them. Otherwise they could be excluded from some job opportunities. We have given these amendments a good run through. I look forward to the follow-up from the Minister, but beg leave to withdraw. Amendment 51CDA withdrawn. Amendment 51CDB not moved. Amendment 51CDC Moved by
