Proceeding contribution from Lord Freud (Conservative) 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, many specific points have been made and I shall try to deal with them. We have debated this issue a lot and perhaps I may gently remind the noble Lord, Lord Peston, that we actually voted both ways on very similar issues. I recall that we had a plus two and a minus 16 on this issue—I think it was this issue. When we talk about the message coming from the Lords to the Commons, there were a number of votes in this area.
