Welfare Reform and Work Bill

Proceeding contribution from Baroness Afshar (Crossbench) in the House of Lords on Monday, 25 January 2016. It occurred during Debate on bills on Welfare Reform and Work Bill.

My Lords, I support the comments of the noble Baroness, Lady Meacher. In the case of minorities, mental disability is regarded as a dishonour or as a great failure for the family, and only within the formal context of education, and at early stages, is it possible to intervene. Furthermore, because the intervention adjusts a young person to the requirements of the British community, with which the minority communities are not very familiar, it is essential to bring in these potential talents by catching them early and helping them.
