Proceeding contribution from Baroness Drake (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 23 January 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on Welfare Reform Bill.

Welfare Reform Bill

I thank the noble Lord for that response. In the earlier stages of the debate on this community, my particular concern was that the protection necessary for it is not dealt with solely as a matter of discretion and that there is clear guidance—whether or not as a consequence of dealing with the matter as part of a wider resolution—that it is not left solely to the individual discretion of advisers. I take the response of the Minister as meaning that it will not be left in that way. He is nodding.
