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

I asked specifically whether the Government had sought or received any legal advice about whether or not this proposal was compliant with the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. Can the Minister answer that question?
