Proceeding contribution from Anne Main (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 6 December 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Benefits Uprating.
Benefits Uprating
I am sure that the £6.6 billion that the Minister has announced today will be welcome to many families in the UK, but I am extremely concerned that the European Commission is seeking to open that benefit pot to European benefit tourists who seek to avail themselves of it. That £6.6 billion will be in no way enough if we are to encompass benefits for European benefit tourists.
