Proceeding contribution from Baroness Lister of Burtersett (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 11 January 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on Welfare Reform Bill.

Welfare Reform Bill

I apologise, but I wonder whether the Minister could say one more thing now so that we do not have to come back to it at Third Reading. If the assessment phase is done away with, clearly there is no issue. Given that the Minister himself is clearly suggesting that he would like to see that, would it be possible for him then to say whether, in the event that the assessment phase is not abolished, he would accept the spirit of this amendment now?
