Lord Palmer of Childs Hill (LD)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 18 June 2025

Debate

Public Authorities (Fraud, Error and Recovery) Bill

Contribution

My Lords, I move Amendment 103 on behalf of my noble friend Lady Kramer, who is in the Chamber. We are all playing ducks and drakes with where we are. The amendment was tabled by my noble friend and the noble Baroness, Lady Bennett of Manor Castle. It would prevent the Department for Work and Pensions from compelling banks to disclose the bank statements of benefit recipients in deciding whether to issue direct deduction orders.
