Welfare Reform Bill

I am with the Minister on this issue, because I do not think that the department needs to legislate to have a charter. One problem with legislating for the charter is, as the Public Bill Office advised the noble Baroness, Lady Thomas, that it would have to apply only to the Bill, which would limit what the Minister has suggested that the department is engaged in producing. It would help enormously for us to see the draft of the document. I believe that it is a step forward, and it should have the capacity to change, as the Minister said.
