Welfare Reform Bill

If there are any more, doubtless we will uncover them as we go through the extensive amendments that we have debated and will continue to debate. The noble Lord, Lord Ramsbotham, spoke to a point which he raised earlier in Committee, and we are looking into the issue with the Ministry of Justice. The flexibility that Clause 20 provides could help. There is a process of liaising with the Prison Service about people who are due to leave prison to get them into the Jobcentre Plus system, but I am not sure that that is the complete answer to the real issue raised by the noble Lord.
