This goes against the grain of what Anne McGuire has said which is within
the CARWB newsletter letter I have just sent to Danmail..."Whilst Anne
McGuire kept on saying that the Bill was not about forcing disabled people
into paid work.... Anne McGuire also stated....Anne McGuire was a little
surprised to find the Welfare Reform Bill she was supporting said that
Disabled People may be forced to have medical treatment as a condition of
receiving benefits. Like with other representatives we have pointed out
which section in the Bill to Anne McGuire. She has reassured us that she
will make it clear that no one will be forced to have medical treatment in
order to get benefits when it comes for third reading in House of Commons
during the New Year. We want her to do one better, and that is to remove
this section together with the whole Bill."
So who's telling fibs then here... with this news story:- "Crackdown on
mental illness benefit claims will see stiffer fit-for-work test". See
