Welfare Reform Bill

Proceeding contribution from Baroness Sherlock (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 10 October 2011. It occurred during Debate on bills and Committee proceeding on Welfare Reform Bill.
I thank the Minister. I wanted to phrase my question more precisely because I think I may have confused him. The improvised impact assessment says on page 18 that changes in modelled entitlements will lift approximately 200,000 children out of poverty. The figure of 350,000 children that he quoted included take-up modelling. My understanding is that previously he has given us figures that did not include take-up modelling. I am trying to contrast the current steady state figure without any assumed change in take-up compared to the previous steady state figure.
