Welfare Reform Bill

I support the suggestion of the noble Lord, Lord Kirkwood. This matter applies particularly to minority women who may well be first-time brides, who arrive in this country with very little information, have children, are later divorced and find themselves reliant on family support without being able to connect with, appeal or go through the processes. If we recognise that rearing children and doing domestic work is real work, I do not see how we can ask them to start training to enter the workplace; they are working.
