Welfare Reform Bill

I wholeheartedly support the amendment, which goes right to the heart of what I have been saying for years about people with ME or CFS. I am sure that the Minister and other noble Lords do not want to be tired by me telling them once again what I believe about these people, who suffer from a fluctuating illness. The stress and pressure of having to fill in forms can sometimes be too exhausting for them, and they simply cannot cope. They then take to their beds and eventually die because they cannot get any income, food or support. I therefore wholeheartedly support the amendment.
