Edward Morello

Liberal Democrat — West Dorset

Speaking in the House of Commons on 29 April 2025

Debate

Public Authorities (Fraud, Error and Recovery) Bill

Contribution

I take the hon. Lady’s point about the need to strengthen safeguards, but passing the Bill would mean that we would be extending the powers of the Department for Work and Pensions before we had the opportunity to look at the independent review of the carer’s allowance overpayments scandal and see what reform of the Department was necessary. Does she share that concern?
