Proceeding contribution from Baroness Crawley (Labour) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 25 June 2009. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Welfare Reform Bill.

Welfare Reform Bill

In answer to the noble Countess, Lady Mar, an individual or customer is asked whether they can do an activity most of the time—we will obviously not follow them about during the day—and they are assessed on that basis. If they cannot, that will be taken as not being able to do that activity.
