Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Alistair Carmichael and Amber Rudd

Monday 19th November 2018 Commons Chamber

[Amber Rudd]

The hon. Gentleman has raised quite a few points. Let me start by congratulating his constituency and celebrating the fact that there are only 220 people there without work. I hope that the roll-out of universal credit will help them to find the additional work that they seek. He has raised a number of issues about the cost of living in his constituency. If I may, I will come back to him on those matters.

[Mr Alistair Carmichael (Orkney and Shetland) (LD)]
