Welfare Reform and Work Bill

Proceeding contribution from Stephen Timms (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 20 July 2015. It occurred during Debate on bills on Welfare Reform and Work Bill.

I look forward to coming to that part of my speech. The Bill, as I understand it, says that the limit does not apply in the case of tax credits for children born before 6 April 2017. The limit does apply in the case of universal credit for children born before 6 April. That seems to me a pretty clear unfairness and we will oppose that unfairness, and we will table amendments to deal with that and other unfairnesses in the Bill.
