Proceeding contribution from Baroness Meacher (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 1 November 2011. It occurred during Committee proceeding and Debate on bill on Welfare Reform Bill.
Welfare Reform Bill
May I interrupt the Minister for a second? He says that this will enable these people to get into work. Let us suppose that someone could take a job at a check-out in a Tesco store but was actually interested in trying to do better than that. Would that be acceptable or would they be expected to take the check-out job at Tesco? That is one of the issues.
