Welfare Reform Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord Freud (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 1 November 2011. It occurred during Debate on bills and Committee proceeding on Welfare Reform Bill.
I think that I can give good news and bad news. There are two issues here. The first is the person who had a disguised problem which then emerges. We have a solution to that: if it emerges that there was good reason, the decision-maker can reverse the position. The bad news is that we do not have a position where, once someone recants, they are forgiven instantly.
