Welfare Reform Bill

Proceeding contribution from Baroness Hollis of Heigham (Labour) in the House of Lords on Wednesday, 11 January 2012. It occurred during Debate on bills on Welfare Reform Bill.
My Lords, almost everything passed in this House has financial implications. The House of Commons is entitled to and regularly will dismiss every amendment passed in this House under financial privilege. There is nothing new in that. We do indeed then go into ping-pong because this House will offer an alternative amendment for the House of Commons to consider. Should we reach that situation, some of the fallback amendments mentioned by the noble Baroness could then be considered.
