Proceeding contribution from Ian Jnr Paisley (Democratic Unionist Party) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 1 February 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on Welfare Reform Bill.
Welfare Reform Bill
The social impact of the proposals concerns me greatly. The right hon. Gentleman has rightly characterised them as ““spiteful””. It is at the point when a long-term severely disabled person is in transition from their teenage years to adulthood that their parents or family unit require additional support. Cutting that support will hit the family, and the young person, really hard, socially.
