Welfare Reform Bill

I thank the Minister for his response. As he says, it is important that we are able to respond to changed situations—that certainly is progress—but we still have some way to go. I agree with the comments made by my noble friends Lady Hollis and Lady Hayter, and by the noble Lord, Lord Boswell. The integrity and transparency of the process is paramount. As noble Lords have said, it is possible that what comes back will not support the aims or proposals of the Government. With that, I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment 51G withdrawn. Amendment 51H not moved. Clause 30 disagreed. Amendment 52 had been withdrawn from the Marshalled List. Clause 31 agreed. Schedule 1: Universal credit: supplementary regulation-making powers "Amendment 52A not moved." Schedule 1: Universal credit: supplementary regulation-making powers "Amendment 52A not moved."
