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


Welfare Reform Bill

I would like to thank the noble Lord, Lord Kirkwood, but also the Minister for that very helpful reply. It seems that the Government are doing everything they can to resolve what has been a ridiculous situation of prisoners coming out of prison and having virtually nothing to live on for some time. With that, I am happy to withdraw the amendment. Amendment 62 withdrawn.
