Welfare Reform and Work Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord Low of Dalston (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 9 December 2015. It occurred during Committee of the Whole House (HL) and Debate on bills on Welfare Reform and Work Bill.

I understand the point the noble Lord is making, but I put it to him that the contradiction he points to arises only if you decide to remove the extra ESA WRAG component for new claimants. If the benefit remains the same, there is no disincentive in moving off work and moving back again.
