Proceeding contribution from Lord Freud (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Monday, 31 October 2016. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Improving Lives: Green Paper.
Improving Lives: Green Paper
I very much regret having to say that we are not in a position to look again at that measure. The WRAG was not doing what it was designed to do. What we are now looking at in the Green Paper is how to separate the financial aspects of the benefit from the support that people require.
