Proceeding contribution from Lord Livermore (Labour) in the House of Lords on Monday, 1 June 2026. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Middle East: Economic Response.


Middle East: Economic Response

I am grateful to my noble friend for what he said. I will certainly look up the speech and programme that he mentions, and will recommend it to my colleagues in the Department for Work and Pensions as they work with Alan Milburn on his review. As all noble Lords know, Alan Milburn published the interim report of his review and his final review is coming out in the autumn. The kind of scheme that he mentions is worth looking at and, as I say, I will look up the speech that my noble friend mentioned.
