Proceeding contribution from Luke Evans (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 27 November 2024. It occurred during Debate on bill on Finance Bill.


Finance Bill

While the Prime Minister was out of the country on the 19th, something else was snuck out: a letter from the Department for Work and Pensions, explaining that, at the point of reaching its decision on this, it knew from its own internal analysis that it would impoverish 100,000 pensioners into relative poverty and 50,000 pensioners into absolute poverty. This information was asked for time and again in readiness for a debate in this House. Is it not right that information relevant to these measures should have been available in time for a debate?
