Proceeding contribution from Lord Grayling (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 21 February 2012. It occurred during Debate on bill on Welfare Reform Bill.


Welfare Reform Bill

The right hon. Gentleman needs to remember what the amendments are about. Large numbers of people in our community are under-housed and others are in temporary accommodation. We have formed the view that it is neither good value for the taxpayer nor right for those people that we pay for those in social housing to have spare rooms. That is the purpose of our amendments.
