Lord Foulkes of Cumnock
In this particular area, the Minister still has not answered the question put by two of my colleagues. They did not ask whether benefits are going to be uprated by 5.2 per cent, as they should be, but when the Government are going to tell us. It is the time that we want to know; not a definitive statement now. Will he now answer that question?
Lord Freud
My Lords, as noble Lords will be well aware, there is an autumn Statement where these things are declared. That is the answer.
