Proceeding contribution from Stephen Timms (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 1 February 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on Welfare Reform Bill.
Welfare Reform Bill
The hon. Lady set out the fact that there was objection at her party conference to an arbitrary time limit. Does she accept the case for setting the limit, whatever it should be, in regulations instead of in the Bill? Putting it in the Bill means that it will take another Act of Parliament to change it in future.
