Welfare Reform Bill

My Lords, I thank the Minister for his response to my amendment on the requirement to attend work-focused interviews and for his promises. As for domestic violence, I did not get around to speaking to my amendment mainly because it was grouped with a number of other amendments and was not called. However, I am very obliged to the Minister for what he said about domestic violence. I beg leave to withdraw the amendment. Amendment 23 withdrawn. Clause 18 : Work availability requirement Clause 18 : Work availability requirement Amendment 23A not moved. Clause 19 : Claimants subject to no work-related requirements Amendment 24 Clause 19 : Claimants subject to no work-related requirements Amendment 24 Moved by
