Welfare Reform Bill

Proceeding contribution from Lord Freud (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 16 November 2011. It occurred during Debate on bills and Committee proceeding on Welfare Reform Bill.
Clearly, one has to be absolutely sympathetic to this point. As we all know, levels of equipment can vary hugely. However, the point on this particular issue is that we will look at only readily available, cheap aids and appliances, which can be reasonably used. That will be the definition and it is the definition used today in DLA, so we are effectively porting that approach over. I think I have already asked for the amendment to be withdrawn.
