Speaking in the House of Lords on 15 October 2024

Debate

Social Security (Scotland) Act 2018 (Disability Assistance) (Consequential Modifications) Order 2024

Contribution

It is a joy to follow the noble Lord, Lord Cameron, and I look forward to working with him in the months ahead as we deal with many of these orders. I could not agree more about thanking the officials; they have been incredibly supportive on such a technical order. They have put in a huge amount of work to make this work; it is far from straightforward to ensure that a new social security system works properly. I have not been asked, but some of the contingencies that have been put in place to make sure that people do not fall through the gaps as we transition are to be applauded.
