Welfare Reform Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord Skelmersdale (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 28 February 2007. It occurred during Debate on bills and Committee proceeding on Welfare Reform Bill.
Good. At least, we have got to the bottom of that. Looking at Clause 12 as a whole, the Explanatory Notes state: "““Regulations … may specify the amount of work-related activity … set out how matters would be taken into account when determining whether a claimant has met the requirement to undertake””," that particular list, and so on. To me, that means that the list is the important thing agreed between the personal adviser and the customer but that variations from it, with good reason, would be allowed. In that case, I am perfectly happy and beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment, by leave, withdrawn. On Question, Whether Clause 12 shall stand part of the Bill?
