Welfare Reform Committee

Meeting date: Tuesday, May 5, 2015

Women and Welfare Debate

The Convener

Agenda item 2 is on the women and welfare debate. As we all know, the committee has agreed to undertake an inquiry into the impact of welfare reform on women. It is expected that the committee will report on its findings in June or July. If we wish to bid for a slot in the chamber in order to debate our findings, we need to pursue the options available to us to secure a slot in the business schedule, probably from September onwards. Does the committee agree that we should do that?

Members indicated agreement.
