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


Welfare Reform Bill

That was an extremely pertinent question. If in essence we can deal with this in due course when further analysis has been undertaken though regulation, that is fine; we would be happy to rest our case there. If the Minister is saying that primary legislation would be needed to deal with this —if that is the message coming from the Box—we are unlikely to have that opportunity for some little while.
