Proceeding contribution from Baroness Meacher (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 31 January 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on Welfare Reform Bill.
Welfare Reform Bill
My Lords, I think that I am right in saying that about £18 billion has been taken out in cuts. We are not getting extra benefit payments, but I applaud the Minister for having retrieved £4 billion; that is wonderful, and great news.
