Proceeding contribution from Lord McKenzie of Luton (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 12 December 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Welfare Reform Bill.

Welfare Reform Bill

My Lords, I do not want an endless wrangle on this. I think that that is being a little tough on the calling of amendments. My noble friend did not immediately realise that the noble Baroness, Lady Meacher, was not in her place, so it perhaps took her a little while to move the amendment on the noble Baroness’s behalf. Frankly, if we are denied the opportunity to proceed with Amendment 1 today, we will simply bring it back at Third Reading. However, I do not think that that is in anyone’s interest.
