Proceeding contribution from Baroness Wilkins (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 14 February 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on Welfare Reform Bill.
Welfare Reform Bill
My Lords, it was shocking that the other place left so little time for the important amendment concerning the disability addition for children. It received scant debate. I strongly support the current amendment for the reasons that I gave at Third Reading, and trust that the Minister now understands the damage that the Bill will do to disabled children unless action is taken.
