Welfare Reform Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord McAvoy (Labour) in the House of Lords on Tuesday, 8 November 2011. It occurred during Debate on bills and Committee proceeding on Welfare Reform Bill.
I am grateful to the noble Lord, who has given way a lot, as we all recognise. However, I am sure he recognises that this is a very complicated and emotive subject. I do not have the mastery of detail that the Minister or my Front Bench team have. How can a 12-month period be applicable to someone who is suffering from cancer? It is an arbitrary decision.
