Proceeding contribution from Lord McKenzie of Luton (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 31 January 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on Welfare Reform Bill.


Welfare Reform Bill

What the Minister says about affirmative regulations is right, but is he aware that it is the stated position of the Conservative Party in this House that it does not vote against affirmative regulations? In recent times we have had several such debates, and the Conservative Party has declined to do this on principle.
